Ok, I already read how to swap fn / ctrl in bios. I enter bios, then go to Keyboard / Mouse, then Enabled Fn and Ctrl Key swap and also enabled fn key as primary function. Success. Now I can easily do f1-f12 without use fn key, that's good, can use ctrl f3 (or fn f3 actually because already swapped) example to increase sound. But.... still have issue, how do I click ctrl + f9 real (example in some IDE / editor, if you want to compile, you have to press ctrl + f9), but ctrl + f9 will trigger 'set...

Just like the title says, recently I've been noticing that when I'm selecting a group of items in a folder if I select some and click and drag over them again it deselects them. This never never happened before a couple weeks ago. I believe it started when I had an IT guy do a checkup on my PC. My System folders also have an annoying tag that says "System Folder" now but that can be easily overlooked. Examples: http://ptscr.com/cax3uc http://ptscr.com/cax3xp P.S: Never letting an IT guy touch my...

In Windows, whether Outlook:edit-email or Word, Let's say my paragraph has the word customr, where customr is the name of a variable in an app, that I am using Word to document, or using Outlook to communicate its issues. So, I selected customr with my mouse, then right-click on the selection, hoping to copy the text. But, no, the copy context-menu does not come up. Instead, the spellcheck menu comes up suggesting that I correct the text customr. How can I persuade Word or Outlook to let me get ...

My prospective printer demands a CMYK PDF. I have 40 PNGs to prepare (repeatedly). I convert an RGB PNG to a CMYK PDF with ImageMagick like this: convert myRGB.png -colorspace cmyk cmyk.pdf The colors are not as bright in this pdf as they are if the same operation is done in Photoshop. I do not own Photoshop (a friend supplied the example). There is a web site that produces the same brighter result, but only one file at time. I need an open source solution like ImageMagick. I have tried using se...

I have a todo script in my terminal where I add paths to folders that I am working on. For example badoop project X: /path/to/project/folder Then the next day I run badoop and I get the list that I have added. I would love to be able to click on the path and the terminal to cd into it! At the moment if I cmd+click it opens the folder in the finder. But is there a way to get the terminal to point to that path Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I'm not sure how to phrase this questions. Ages ago I red on a forum about a rule where users had to replace http with hxxp in links to prevent the server (or someone) from spying on them. I noticed somewebsites have an invisible "redirect" page that a user is taken through when clicking on a link that takes them out of the website. What is this about? I was just using slack.com and noticed there was a link to https://pr.to/example/ When I clicked on the link I was taken to an intermediate page ...

I have a python script that logs URLs to be generated on the fly. I'd like to be able to cat logfile.log so that I can see the output of the log then be able to click those links rather than copy/pasting them into my browser window. Is this possible if I make a shell script or even better if I just run it through cat/head/tail? Let's block ads! بخوانید...

This issue has been bothering me ever since my mom tued off my computer a few days ago and I tued it back on the next day to do some work. Right-clicking on any file or folder in Windows Explorer causes an hourglass icon to appear; the Explorer window inevitably goes Not Responding and when I click the X, the toolbar and icons in it disappear for a moment while the thing restarts. I've tried disabling all the third-party Context Menu extension things with that Shell Ex View program (they are cur...

So here is my example image: Dark Background (it's totally black in this example) Light Text (it's totally black in this example) two glowing edges To explain it a little further. The expected result based on this image should look like the following: White Background Black Text Colors are the same The Problems I don't know how I can prevent the colors f...

I own a Lenovo Yoga 900 that I bought last year. Ever since I received it, I disliked the trackpad because of it's inaccuracy. More specifically, what really annoys me about it is that whenever I try to click by placing my finger on the trackpad and applying pressure until it physically "clicks" down, the laptop sometimes registers it as two immediate clicks at once. For most UI elements, this gets extremely frustrating. I have disabled tap-to-click and have played with the plam reject and sensi...

I have bunch of photos of different items. I would like to crop them and found a lot of tools that crops the images in bulk. It's good, however when I was taking pictures not all of the items were in the middle of the picture. So now when I crop all the pictures by the same settings then not all of them appearing in the middle. My question: is there any software where I can do something like that? Click on the place where I think the real middle of the picture is supposed to be It crops the pict...

When I press Ctrl-f or Ctrl-b, it takes a few seconds for me to read some text to figure out where I am in the file. Is there some way I can make myself not get lost so easily? For example, is it possible to change Ctrl-f or Ctrl-b so that they move some lines less than a page? If this is not possible, then is there a way to make Vim move line-by-line, quickly, but not so quickly that you can't see the text scroll up/down? Let's block ads! بخوانید...

But the problem is when I press the F11 or F12 key for the second time (still holding the Ctrl key). Instead of Using the given shortcu...

The Ctrl+Backspace shortcut for deleting whole words is a feature in most text editors and text inputs. Due to their usefulness, they have become a part of my everyday typing habits. However, in Windows Explorer, when renaming files, Ctrl+Backspace enters a character instead of deleting the previous word. Oddly enough, it's lesser used sibling for deleting the next word Ctrl+Delete works as intended when renaming files. This is a problem on my work PC, which uses Windows 7. But I recall this bei...

I updated ctrlp today, and it does not search any more. For example, I have a list like this after I press ctrl+p > a/b/c/d.js > a/b/c/e.js > a/b/c/f.js then i entered af, it gave me nothing, it should give me a/b/c/f.js in previous version. Did I miss something here? Let's block ads! بخوانید...
