Special Function Keys

Command Key
Pressing and holding down the command key allows you to test out hot spots and functions as they will perform in the ProViewer.
The first thing you will notice is that the cursor changes depending upon what it is over.   It will turn into the finger cursor over hot spots, “hot” pictures (pictures with assigned actions) and movies that are defined to spring open.   It will display the stop/pause cursors over active movies and the hand cursor over movies or pictures that you have defined as able to be moved by the user.
This gives you the opportunity to test all the ProViewer functions before actually having to create a ProViewer.

Control Key
Holding down the control key allows you to view all of the hot spots on a page at once.  There is no other consequence to this action.  You may select and move objects as usual.  As soon as you release the control key the hot spots will once again become invisible.

Caps Lock
Pressing and the caps lock key allows you to view all of the hot spots on a page at once.  There is no other consequence to this action.  You may select and move objects as usual.  The hot spots will remain visible until you release the caps lock by pressing the key once again.

Option Key
Holding down the option key while dragging a picture, movie, hot spot or text box duplicates the item.  The original item remains where it was before the drag.  The duplicate item will be placed down in the new position.
Holding down the option key while selecting Size Page will frame the window tight around the page.  

Shift Key
Holding down the shift key while dragging a picture, movie, hot spot or text box causes the drag to be constrained to a vertical or horizontal path.  The constraining direction is dependent upon the first direction to which the item is moved.
Holding down the shift key while resizing a picture, movie, hot spot or text box causes the resize to be constrained to a the aspect ratio of the item.  That is, if the item was perfectly square before the resize, holding down the shift key will keep the item square as the size changes.

Arrow Keys
Pressing the arrow keys while a picture, movie or hot spot is selected will nudge the item one pixel in the direction of the arrow.
With nothing selected or from within a ProViewer, the arrow keys may be used to scroll through the pages.  The down arrow and the right arrow scroll forward.  The up arrow and the left arrow scroll backward.
Within ProView, the arrow keys work as usual when an item is selected.  When there is no items selected, the arrow keys now flip through the pages.

Color Eyedropper

Command-Shift-E
This command opens the new “Color Eyedropper” dialog.  If text is selected, the dialog opens to change the text color.  If a text box is selected but no text within the box is selected the dialog opens to change the text background color. In all other cases the dialog opens to change the page color.  (If no page is open this function is disabled.)

Select All

Command-A
This command evokes the new “Select All” selection in the EDIT menu.  If a text box is selected, Select All selects the entire text within the box.  In any other case Select All selects all the items on a page.  (If no page is open, or there are no items on the page this function is disabled.)

Resize Page
Five new  options for resizing a page and/or centering page items have been added.

Control Key Resize
Command-Control Key Resize
Holding down the control key while resizing the page (either through the menu selection or the toolbar) will cause the page to be sized to the current screen.  

If both the control and command keys are held down, all items will be centered to the new size page.  
This could cause items to be placed off the page.

Shift Key Resize
Command-Shift Key Resize
Holding down the shift key while resizing the page (either through the menu selection or the toolbar) will cause the page to be sized for a 640 x 480 screen with a menubar.  

If both the shift and command keys are held down, all items on the page will be centered to the new size page.  
This could cause items to be placed off the page.

Command Key Resize
Holding down ONLY the command key while resizing the page (either through the menu selection or the toolbar) will cause all items on the page to be centered on page.  NO PAGE RESIZING WILL OCCUR.
This could cause items to be placed off the page.

Hot Spots

Command-Shift-R
This is the keyboard equivalent to Add Rectangle hot spot from the PAGE menu or toolbar.

Command-Shift-C
This is the keyboard equivalent to Add Circle hot spot from the PAGE menu or toolbar.

Command-Shift-F
This is the keyboard equivalent to Add Freeform hot spot from the PAGE menu or toolbar.

Text Boxes

Option-Click Text box
Holding down the option key while clicking on a text box toggles on and off the transparent text mode.
