You can customize the menus, toolbars, and keyboard accelerators in DAQFactory Control to fit the way you work. To view a list of the current keyboard accelerators, select Help - Keyboard Shortcuts... from the main menu. A dialog box will appear listing all the shortcuts. Make sure and select your desired category, or All Commands to display all the shortcuts. You can use the print or copy icon at the top left corner of the box to print a list of the shortcuts, or copy the list to the clipboard.
To edit the shortcuts and other features, select Tools - Customize... from the main menu. The customize dialog box that appears has 5 sheets. Here is a quick description on how to use each sheet. We suggest you experiment to achieve the results that work for you.
Commands: Use to add / remove features from your toolbars or menus. Select from the categories on the left, then click and drag a command from the list on the right and drop it in a toolbar or menu on the screen. You can also edit the toolbars and menus displayed by clicking and dragging any toolbar button to a new location, or drag it to the main part of the screen to remove it from the toolbar.
Toolbars: Allows you to select which toolbars are displayed (you can also use the View menu from the main menu). You can also create new toolbars here too. If you completely mess up your toolbars, you can press the Reset or Reset All buttons to restore the toolbar or toolbars to their default settings.
Keyboard: Use to assign keyboard shortcuts to DAQFactory commands. Select the Category and Command from the drop down and list to the left of the box. To assign a new shortcut, click in the Press New Shortcut Key box, then press the desired key combination. The keys you pressed will appear in the box. Press the Assign button to assign it to the selected command. To remove a shortcut, select the key combination in the Current Keys list and press the Remove button. Press Reset All to restore all the shortcuts to their default values.
Menu: Use this sheet to display the popup menus on the screen. Once displayed, you can edit them by going back to the Commands sheet and using the functions available there. You can also control menu animations and shadowing from this sheet.
Options: Some additional customization options.
