RegmagiK Tip of the day

This thread is for [Tip of the day] kind of help. For example:

Alt+D is a keyboard shortcut to set focus to Address Bar. Not very
intuitive, but compatible with Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers.

Translator notes

Comments in this thread should help translators to avoid common pitfalls while translating resources for RegmagiK. For example:

ampersand before letter: &File means keyboard accelerator.

1. when possible use the first capital letter. If this letter is taken in the same menu group or in the same dialog, try to
be creative. If not sure do not use &. They are optional.

For example "i" in A&ide is selected. It reminds me of 'Information'. May be it would be better to use 'Information' instead of 'Aide'?

2. Ctrl + should not be translated in any menu. Same for Shift + Ctrl +

Letter to AMUG President

I found your site by searching Google for RegMagic. It looks like you included it on one of your member CDs (March 2004).

I do not have a problem with that as far as copyright issues. I even want to thank you for promoting my product. But I'd like to know when someone publish anything about RegmagiK (current name of RegMagic, changed due to conflict with regmagic.h).

Also, since you do not have any links to my site, I'd like you to inform your members that since March 2004 there has been several new releases with new functionality and bug fixes.

This may not be a big deal, since I have not heard from anyone who got Regmagic from AVMUG CD, but still it is important to me.

Thank you for understanding

Slideshow timeout tweak

I did finally get the answer I was looking for. instructions for editing the Registry to change the timing on the Fax and Picture Viewer slideshows:
1. Open your favorite Registry Editor and navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software \Microsoft \Windows \Current Version \Explorer \ShellImageView
2. Create or edit DWORD value "Timeout" (without the quotation marks).
In the Value data field enter 500 for a 1/2 second duration, 1000 for a 1 second duration, etc.
3. Re-open windows explorer window if it was open for this change to take effect.

HKDD support on Windows ME

At this time HKEY_DYN_DATA (HKDD) is not supported in RegmagiK. The main reason is that HKDD is not common across different versions of Windows and I just did not have any requests to add it. If you really have a reason to use RegmagiK for HKDD hive - let me know and I will add it to RegmagiK.
