Post by Trikky »

Hi Guys....

Does anybody know of any keyboard shortcuts?

I know about F1 for Pause and CTRL-S for screengrab.......But are there any
more?

F1-F12 for the first twelve menu icons
Shift-F1 to Shift-F12 for the last twelve

C or Z to center on the mouse

1-4 select track type when building railroad, or 1-2 for roads

Cursor-keys to move the view

Space to remove news messages


I think that's about all there are...

Sorry, wrote that last post before I read yours.

You missed one. DEL closes ALL windows, and right clicking removes the red
error box... but that's not really a keyboard shortcut, is it? ;)

Oh yes. It goes right across the screen. F1 is pause, F2 is options, F3 is
save... once it goes to F12, then you do SHIFT+F1 and it keeps going... but
SHIFT+F12 is as far as I've ever had to go...

Could you list me the track types and road types? Doubtless TTDLX only. ;(

It's just the four directions you can build a track in. Not "types",
that was a bad description

I seem to remember doing that in TTO too. Just try it when building
tracks or roads.

There one more key I've forgotten, and that's Escape. It quits building
mode and returns the normal mouse cursor.


Oh, and btw Christie, I'd prefer if you leave the line giving an
attribution, so that people know who you're replying to. My newsserver
has extremely short retention times, and I frequently don't have the
message you're replying to anymore, so there's no way to find out.
