  • Transition PC->Mac a few questions…

    Posted by Andy Stokes on August 17, 2005 at 5:50 am

    Hi aill,

    I’m making the transition across from PC (Win) to Mac (osX) and I have a few questions.

    1) On the PC I had a free plugin from ObviousFX to grab a frame from the active comp view which was very useful for pasting into . Is there something similar on the Mac ?
    2) My trusty old F9 key that I used to Easy Ease is part of OSx (Tile all windows) anyway I can reassign this ?
    3) OT (have already posted on the C4D forum) related to Cinema 4D. I cannot use the keyboard shortcuts for play, Open and many others in there either ? Any ideas ?

    That’s all for now.. Got to say i’m loving the performance increase and overall “friendlyness” that OsX offers.

    Cheers,

    Andy

    1. If by comp view you meant ‘computer’ view, press shift-cmd-3 and OSX will take a snapshot of the screen and it will appear as a file on your desktop called ‘picture1’.

    2 & 3. May be the same cause. Go to your System Preferences (under apple menu) then to your expos
