Quite recently I bought myself a MacBook Pro and Ive never got round to figuring out when Im using Flash, how I make the Function keys do Flash commands rather than work the sound & the Dashboard.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers 🙂

System Prefs \> Keyboard & Mouse \> Keyboard Tab \> Check “Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys”
I turn mine off too… no need for exposé and junk on my functionz

Oh cool. I forgot I posted this. I’ll give it a bash tonight.
I’m from Dundee but I live in Glasgow, I post on other forums as upcloseandpixelated. I’ve had a nosey on Scotflash before actually but never registered.
