Hi everyone, I have a MacBook Pro 17 '' which comes with the AZERTY keyboard layout. I have installed the Parallels tool and it runs great, except for some things which I can't figure out right now. I am a delphi developer, and so I installed BDS 2006 in the virtual Machine. No problem at all. Only issue is that I can't seem to find how to trigger some keys / key combinations in the Windows Virtual Machine. If anyonw knows how to do that, please let me know. Some things I've been searching for now : F9 Key - In delphi it is used in combination with the CTRL to do a Build / Compile. On my MacBook Pro it seems to dim the keyboard backlight, and I havn't found out how I could do the CTRL + F9 to trigger a build / compile. F4 Key - Used in combination with CTRL or ALT to close a window / application. On my MacBook Pro it triggers the volume thingie. F12 - Used in Delphi to switch from From to Code and vice verca. On my MackBook Pro it just triggers Dashboord. The @ Sign ( located on the fat top left of my keyboard under Escape ) doesn't seem to be doing a thing. Havn't found out how to simulate it yet, so I can't type any email adresses. Anyonw knows how I could solve those little quirks ? Regards, Annunaki
Regarding function keys, go to the OS X system preferences, in the keyborad and mouse pane, select keyboard tab and check "Use the F1-F12 keys to control software features..." Can't help you with the @ key, but you may have success trying remapkey or key tweak. mike
Actually the function keys problem seems to be solved. I stubled on it by accident while trying to get the @ sign out of my keyboard. It is pretty easy and I should have thought about that. You just need to press and hold the fn key before you press the coresponding function key. Regards, Annunaki
