Hi,

In the Menu Editor, I put "Del" in the Shortcut ("NameModifier" became checked) of the Edit --> Clear MenuItem, run the project in the IDE and see the correct Icons (Command-Del Character). But it does not works as Command-Delete.

So, I deleted the three letters I just added and place in the main window Open event:

EditClear.KeyboardShortcut = "Cmd-Del"

But it does not works as Command-Delete.

BY THE WAY:
If I use: fn-Command-Delete on keyboard, the EditClear MenuItem is fired...

Where am I doing something wrong ?

Del is for the smaller forward-delete key. The newer Apple keyboards are a bit confusing on this aspect, because the key traditionally labeled as "backspace" is also labeled as Delete. If you use "Bksp" as the shortcut, it should work.



How newer newer Apple keyboards are ? My PowerBook date from August 2004.

AND:

I wrote that Command-Delete does nothing _AND_ fn-Command-Delete works. I talk about the key just above the Return key (on the right of the '-/_' key)

Cheers,

Emile
