    Posted by Vladimir Kucherov on February 2, 2011 at 1:21 am

    For anyone curious, I went through and made a list of what all the Function keys actually do:

    Command + F1 – prefs

    Command + F2 – browse

    Command + F3 – conform

    Command + F4 – color

    in color tab
    F1 – “curves”
    F2 – “qualifier”
    F3 – Format – Output
    F4 – “Window” – circular
    F5 – “WIndow” – linear
    F6 – “Window” – Polygon
    F7 – Nothing
    F8 – Format – Input
    F9 – “Window” – Curve
    F10 – Nothing
    F11 – Key

    Command + F5 – nothing (default, turns on VoiceOver on mac)

    Command + F6 – Viewer

    Command + F7 – Gallery

    Command + F8 – Format

    Command + F9 – Deck

    Command + F10 – Scene (F-key shortcuts stop working while in Scene)

    Command + F11 – Instantly Quits/Crashes resolve without saving (what the heck??)

    Command + F12 – Instantly Quits/Crashes resolve without saving

    —–
    Shortcuts I still miss after all these amazing updates:
    Mouse-less toggle of H S L qualifiers
    Cycle through Picker/+/-/+s/-s without mouse

    Also wishing curves window would be larger. For something you want to be able to control very carefully it’s a small window to make small adjustments in.

    Sweet thanks Vlad.
    I had never tried the “cmd +” variations.

    FYI I have the HSL’s toggling and +s-s via Quickkeys. (search my novation post of you want the file.)

    Hi Andy!

    Go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES | KEYBOARD | KEYBOARD and check “use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys”.

    You may also have to disable the F-key shortcuts Expose & Dashboard etc (SYSTEM PREFERENCES | KEYBOARD | KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS).

    Then your keyboard F-keys should work.
