Keyboard
In addition to the standard usage of the Keyboard under Windows (dialog boxes, special control keys...), MWare allows use of the keyboard for the following tasks.
Type-in applies to the Selected Objects in the View Window or Child Window with Input Focus.
Typing into a Control Object will set the Current Value of the control. The following syntax is supported when typing in to a Control Object.
|
+n |
Change Current Value to positive value n |
|
-n |
Change Current Value to negative value n |
|
nm or nM |
Change Current Value to n ÷ 1,000 |
|
nk or nK |
Change Current Value to n × 1,000 |
When typing into a delay time parameter, you can optionally specify a time unit after the value. The available units are: seconds (s), samples (z), meters (mtr) and feet (ft). If you type a value without a unit, the current units for that control will be used. To change the current units without changing the value, type in only the unit designator. MWare assumes the speed of sound is 340 m/sec.
Usually a Ctrl or Alt key combination which provides a short cut for invoking common Application Menu selections.
Keyboard Accelerators are available whenever the corresponding menu item is available and MediaMatrix has Input Focus. You can also switch focus within MediaMatrix between the View window and the Terminal (if activated) with the F2 key.
If a menu item has a Keyboard Accelerator the accelerator key combination is shown in the menu to the right of the menu item.
