Function keys and regular keys don't work in Torque SDK (3D)

by Kenneth Malone · in Torque Game Engine · 02/23/2006 (3:30 pm) · 2 replies

My keystrokes and function keys don't operate or open the items in T3D. ( ie. I can't call Items that are in the menu, I can't toggle Map Editor.)The keystrokes work okay when I use them in the World Editor Inspector.

I'm running on an iMac G5 with MacOS X version 10.4.2

The function keys can be altered on your "System Preferences" on the G5. Open System Preferences and click on Keyboard and Mouse. Then select "Keyboard Shortcuts". Then de-select F9, F10, F11 and F12. Then your keystrocks for the Torque SDK should work...

Im on a PowerMac G5 and had a similar problem but found the following solution

I use (apple command: being the key by the space bar) + F#

so when I want to toggle the level editor press (apple command) + F11

note Im a new Mac user my self so don't quote me on the name of that key its located on both sides of the space bar between the space bar and the alt key I have found in most games and even in TGE that I have to use (apple command) + what ever key where on PC I used ctr + key

Hope thats of some help
