Toolbar Button Set

Post by iaseac »

I have the icon for the Toolbar Button Set on the toolbar.
Click on it does nothing. How do I activate set #2?

Fell right into that trap - thanks.

Here is another one:
Cycle sort order per the Hover Box F1 menu. Sort of what?

Did not find "Click the button "Select Controls." ??? My eyes are not the best..

The 'o' on HB should be for open

The feature was added in 2018, since then it has been renamed to "Select Context", maybe your eyes are ok, applying logic is not the best.

I see no typo, I don't decide the keys, currently O has a function.

Space+Enter will open.

Ctrl+O does not get cycle sort order It gets Open

My settings are all as specified - except the first trap.

Keeps getting #2 half the time - when set for regular viewing - #2 is far less distinct to me in FFox.

Now that you have mentioned Ctrl+O, I get the feeling you have previously pressed X while the HoverBox was showing, so while the FCP HoverBox is showing, try pressing Ctrl+X then just O, if that then works, just use O (and the rest of the keys) from then on without Ctrl.

Sorry, that does not work. Ctrl+O keeps getting same old reply/action

Well I'll show you what you are missing out on, the key I am pressing is shown in the top right and the action it achieves is shown in the HoverBox. I'm now guessing that you ignored the info/screenshots in the link I first provided & have been testing in a normal HoverBox all along, not a FCP HoverBox, as well as inexplicably pressing Ctrl+O instead of just O.

Hi Jupe,

Sorry I had tend to an emergency.

I really appreciate all the time you have spent with this problem and it is really unfair to you. It is as if we have two different systems. Allow me to restate the problem:

With the hover box on hit F1 This will display the message box in question.

Half way down in that box you will see "O - Cycle sort order"

Ctrl + O per the instructions provided.

On my system you are now prompted with an OPEN box < I expected to see something related to sort order>

I am interested in what "O - Cycle sort order" is in this context. What is being sorted?

Why do I get an Open screen? Is this what is intended?

That is all and thanks for all the help you provide to so many here.
