Return-Enter bug (a spin-off from: Help for Help)
In my earlier message, I added this at the end:
> FWIW, I'm looking for a technique that someone described for exporting the CS4 shortcuts, editing them outside ID to be recognized by CS5, and then reimporting them. I've made perhaps 100 shortucts and have memorized so many of them that they're now second nature. Lo and Behold, CS4 shortcuts loaded into CS5 emasculate the Return-Enter keys in the dialog boxes and in some way cause the Delete-Paste problem I described last month. I'm finally getting around to doing something about the shortcuts, and I'd much rather tweak the CS4 list than reenter them all over again in CS5.
Ploughing through the Knowledgebase, I came across this page:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/843/cpsid_84345.html
Adobe states:
When you use the German or Swedish language version of InDesign CS5 on Mac OS, pressing Enter or Return has no effect or an undesired effect. For example, pressing Return incorrectly inserts a column break rather than a new paragraph.
The problem can occur with the following actions:
• Entering text • Accepting a default response in a dialog box • Pressing Enter or Return as part of a keyboard shortcut SOLUTION: INSTALL THE INDESIGN OR INCOPY 7.0.1 UPDATE
First, confirm whether you already have the update:
• From the Apple menu, choose About InDesign or About InCopy. • In the About InDesign or About InCopy dialog box, verify if you have Version 7.0 or Version 7.0.1: • If the version is 7.0.1, no further steps are required. • If the version is 7.0, install the update. See the download options below. -----------------------
Well, now. That's very similar to same bug I described that was caused by using CS4 shortcuts in CS5, particular the second two bullets in the first list.
