CONNECT -View Fit All key in?

What is the key combination for View Fit All? It's 4,5 in SS3.

  • The "4,5" key combination in SS3 works as it does because:
    * Position Mapping is on
    * The Main zone is assigned 12345 etc. by default in the Position Mapping preferences
    * The Position Mapping popup menu mnemonic characters are 12345 etc. (hard-coded in SS3)
    4 pops open the View tools from Main (4th position), and 5 is associated with Fit View in the popup menu because it's in the 5th position.

    CONNECT Edition offers a lot of flexibility in the area of key combinations. Position Mapping is off by default, and Keyboard Shortcuts handle key combinations in this case. The F7 key shows you all the top-level Keyboard Shortcuts in a menu. You can also open the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog to see them all and to modify any key assignment.

    The default key combination for Fit View is Q,L,V. That key combination works as it does because:
    * Position Mapping is off and Keyboard Shortcuts are used
    * Q opens a popup-menu containing lots of tools and submenus
    * L opens the View Tools ribbon group popup
    * V is the ribbon keytip for Fit View

    When any ribbon group popup is open, you can press the Alt key to learn the keytips. You can also show those automatically by turning on the "Show Popup Keytip Hints" option in the Ribbon preferences.

    If you want the "4,5" key combination to work the same in CONNECT as in SS3:
    * Turn on Position Mapping in the Preferences dialog (Keyboard Shortcuts will only be used for those keys not used in PM, such as the Space key)
    * Pin the Main group to all workflows. To do that, access the Main group in the "Task Navigation" workflow then right-click on it to open a menu with "Pin/Unpin Group" options.

    If you'd rather use Position Mapping with the legacy Task Navigation dialog rather than the ribbon, you can define the config var MS_TASKNAVIGATION_CONFIGURATION=1 and switch Task Navigation to one of the legacy presentations in the Preferences dialog.

    You can also change the Position Mapping characters in the Preferences dialog. That includes the characters used in popup menus, which is a new feature in CONNECT Edition.
