Pretty nifty!! Thank you!! :thumbup: I knew another Mac user would know! I also have Windows XP as Boot Camp allows two operating systems and my Pfaff embroidery machine won't talk to Snow Leopard, which is where I am right now. Will have to try it in XP next time I log in on that side. Thanks again, Apple user! |

Another symbol is the cents '¢' symbol. Simply press down the 'Alt' button with one hand, punch in the numbers 155, release the 'Alt' button and like magic the cent '¢' symbol will appear. I hope this helps someone, it is just a little knowledge and timesaver. |

Thanks for the thread ~amazing what we can have fun with away from cutting and sewing.
I’m working with a Mac: Shift+Option+k = I used Command+D to make it a different size. Good way to change fonts too. ¢ = Option+4 ° = Shift+Option+8 º = Option+0 List at http://www.nouilles.info/keyboard_shortcuts.html Now I need to print up a Hint Sheet with all the info and keep it close to the computer. If you have a different system that doesn’t work with any of the mentioned hints try a Google Search – ‘Name your machine + symbol short cuts. That’s how I found this listing for my Mac. Debbie |
I try to learn something new every day. I can hardly wait to show my grandchildren. They will be soooo impressed.
