Topic: Swap adjacent characters quickly with the press of one key
 


Make a short sequence whose purpose is to swap the position of two characters. If you spend a lot of time working with text, this can be a valuable shortcut. The makers of BBEdit® (a popular high-end text editor) find this type of operation useful enough to give it its own menu item and hot key...

Topic: QuicKeys can provide easy access to a web site's deeply nested directory structure
 


Web sites contain hundreds, if not thousands of files and dozens of directories. Maneuvering to the desired directory within the Open and Save dialogs requires either a lot of mouse movement or keyboarding. QuicKeys allows you to set up shortcuts to directories and with a simple hot key you can move deep into the directory hierarchy and save countless hours.

Topic: Prepare images for posting to a web site
 


Use QuicKeys to automatically optimize pics from a digital camera for the web. Apply background, drop-shadow, compression, and add frames and edges all by pushing one button. Great for making web pages that multiple people will be updating.

Topic: Dreamweaver solutions
 


Dreamweaver has default hot keys to insert a new table row or column, but it always inserts above the current row or before the current column. If you want to insert a new row or column after the current one you have to select it from a menu. My solution was to create a Menu Selection shortcut of Modify > Table > Insert Rows or Columns which is triggered by the Command+Option+I hot key combination.

I frequently need to shuffle through my open Dreamweaver documents and as with most of my applications I decided to map one of my 5 mouse buttons to select Next Document from the Window menu. Now every time I press button #4 on my trackball it changes documents for me. The only problem with this is that the "Files" or site window is not considered a document, so I created another shortcut to select that window and tied it to button #5 on my trackball. This worked great but for one problem, Dreamweaver grays-out the Next Document option when the Files window is front-most!! So, I modified my Next Document shortcut so that a Decision step first checks to see if "Files" is the name of the front window. If Files is the front window the shortcut selects the 32nd item in the Window menu (this is the menu position of the first document you have open). If Files is not the name of the front-most window then the shortcut simply selects the Next Document menu item.
