I noticed the * is for record but when i hit the 8 or * button to record in Logic it does not record. Is this the correct key command for this ?

First make sure it's really assigned to record on your machine (Logic 8 now has it assigned to "R" on laptops). If it is, then try Fn-P (notice the little * on the P key?).

Grizzly,
Default is "*" of the numeric keypad at the right of the apple keyboard.
NOT the numerals above the letter keys.
Hope this helps.

David,
thanks for the command equivalents list. That's a useful reference.

I get the "on numeric keypad" symbol whenever I make a key command assignment using "Learn by Key Position" -- even if the key position is NOT on the numeric keypad (e.g. if it's a regular alphabetical key).

What's up with that?

Same here!
I always thought that the little rectangular icon ment that it was learned by key position.

It appears you're right! My mistake.

(Or sort of Apple's mistake, for making the icon look so much like a numeric keypad...)

Thu Feb 12, 2009 1:19 pm

OK I've corrected the list... thanks a lot for spotting the mistake!

I have a lot of custom key commands that I am forced to use due to the Swedish keyboard that I'm using.
For some of the commands I was forced to use the "Leran by key label" option to get them to recognise the key. Thats how I found the meaning.

I just learned this a few days ago, thought I'd share it.

system preferences --> international --> input menu --> keyboard viewer

check it, then close out of system preferences. An American (or other national) flag will appear in the upper right menu bar. Click on the flag and click Show Keyboard Viewer

A floating keyboard will appear and shadow all your moves on the computer keyboard. And best of all, it shows ALL the right symbols that Apple uses.

You can have more than one keyboard in the list, so you can switch between two languages. Just scroll down and pic the maps you need

I just found out a whole new set of symbols appear if you press the Option key, and a second set appear if you press Shift-Option.

The symbol you ask for § is Option 6.

` ¡ ™ £ ¢ ∞ § ¶ • ª º – ≠

That is Option and the top row of the keyboard
