Setting the Keyboard Shortcuts

FastRawViewer allows you to re-define all keyboard shortcuts, assigning an arbitrary amount of alternative keystroke and mouse button combinations to each of the actions possible in FastRawViewer.

To define or modify the sequences for the actions use the editor under Menu – File – Keyboard Shortcuts (Ctrl-K):

The left pane contains the list of groups of actions. The right pane displays the names of the actions in the highlighted group and current shortcuts for those actions.

Looking to the right of every action name:

  • [+] – adds a new keyboard shortcut for the action
  • [keyboard combination] – currently assigned shortcut
  • [x] (to the right of every keyboard combination) – deletes this combination.

When pressing the buttons to add or edit the combination the following dialogue appears:

Hit the combination of keys (and mouse buttons), which you want to assign to the action, and it will be memorized. To close the window without modifying the current status (that is, to cancel the assignment), press the Shift key three times.

It is possible that the selected combination is already in use somewhere, and then the program will prompt with the following:

For some actions, only a specific mouse button can be assigned (this applies to the actions, which are done with the mouse: setting the white balance for the “click-on-gray” method, etc.). In this case, the dialogue to assign the combination changes a bit:



 

Settings for Apple Magic Mouse/Trackpad

The standard settings for Apple Magic Mouse in OS X 10.9 и 10.10 are designed for smooth scrolling (Natural Scroll). With these settings trackpad and Magic Mouse continue to send scrolling events for some time even after the user stopped moving his finger.

The settings are very suitable for panning; but cause erratic behavior if we want to associate some action to the trackpad or mouse. For example, if we associate “go to next/previous image” to the Magic Mouse with default natural scroll settings several files will be skipped.

To disable Natural Scroll, please visit Accessibility - Mouse & Trackpad and there select Scrolling without inertia and slow scrolling speed:
