Mac Keyboard shortcuts
Is there a table of Mac key equivalents anywhere in the documentation?
In particular, when entering a tie the handbook says:
First method: "select a note, + creates a tie"
Second method: during note entry press + after first note of the tie.
FYI, in release 9.5 on a Macbook Pro keyboard the + created by shift = does not produce the desired result. Instead, you must use fn /

Sounds like a bug. Shift+= works for me (Windows XP, US keyboard layout).
With regards to the documentation feel free to jump on board! See http://www.musescore.org/en/node/2001

I note in preferences/shortcuts that shift++ is the default shortcut for add more stretch.
since "=" and "+" share a key, unless you changed your default shortcuts, how does it work for you?

For me the default Shift++ does not work with measure stretch. If you change the shortcut for measure stretch do ties start to work?

For me, on Macbook pro with built-in US KB, Shift+= definitely increases stretch. If I clear that shortcut and the one for tie, then define it as Tie it works.
By the way, on a mac, do the preference settings exists in a file somewhere. You can't print them out or copy them from the preferences dialogue

I changed the default shortcuts for measure stretch to { and } in revision 2482. Hopefully this fixes the problem with ties. Please note that preferences settings are respected when you upgrade. You won't see the new defaults unless you click the "Reset all" button in the preferences.

@david { and } are quite hard to get on french windows keyboard (Alt gr + =)
On my macbook { and } are not even printed on the keys.
Is there any reason why you choose these two keys?

Feel free to change to something else. I was trying to pick something that was easy to associate with stretch and shrink. Maybe it is best not to have any shortcuts specified for these two operations?

I just noticed, it looks like keyboard shortcuts can be localized. Probably not something we can do for 0.9.6 but might be worth considering for some of these tricky shortcuts:

Indeed on my french macbook pro I have to enable the numpad or use "Fn" + "=".
Could you confirm that it's the same for you? Then, we can change the documentation accordingly.

On my [US] built-in keyboard the key just left of the right shift key is labeled with "/" and "?" (shift mode) and "+" (fn mode). That's the key I have to use for ties. Not sure about the French key location. Fn plus the standard "=" key (left of "Delete") has no effect on my kb.
However, per David's reply above, I take it this will be added to the bug list, apart from any documentation changes.
In addition, I believe the newer macbook pro buil-tin keyboards no longer have the numpad keys.

i redifined the shortcuts for stretching (shift++, shift+-) so now the shortcut for making a tie works with shift+=
Great, thanks,

What did you choose for more and less stretch shortcuts?
In risposta a What did you choose for more by [DELETED] 5
i chose
cmd+] for stretching more
cmd+[ for stretching less
for a mac it just seemed more logical to choose cmd for this function anyway
