venorm Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 hello, i have an logitech usb keyboard and mac osx 10.5.2 leopard as an hackintosh. So my question is how can i find out on what keys the apple shortcuts are? so, under windows the ~ i can make with "AltGr + ~+* key" but with which combination can i make a ~ under mac osx ? Also my apple key is on the windows logo key and the @ symbol is at "AltGR + L" So i hope someone can help me. Or it is possible to change theese keys? But at first how can i make a ~ in mac osx? Thanks. bye, venorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecker Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 press AltGr+N. You can reveal all of the possible keyboard combinations by displaying the "Keyboard Viewer" application and pressing the different keys (alt, ctrl, command, shift, etc). Enable it in the International/"Input Menu" pane of your system preferences and open it by pressing the flag on the menu bar. EDIT: You also need to check the "show input menu in menu bar" option to see the flag icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hecker Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 When you open the Keyboard Viewer, you get a little image of the keyboard layout which changes when you press and hold any "alternate" key, like ALT, Ctrl, etc. Look at the images I posted and you'll get the idea. hecker kb_viewer_normal.tiff kb_viewer_shift.tiff kb_viewer_alt.tiff kb_viewer_control.tiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
