Mac tip: Keyboard Shortcut to Application Preferences
I stumbled across this the other day and thought I would share with those who care.
Though I do not have to access it often, there are some times where it is helpful to change a particular setting within an application to suit whatever the immediate need is. And, while it is really easy to do this by simply clicking on the application name from the menu bar and then clicking on “Preferences..”, if there is a keyboard shortcut for the same action, then I am all over it because they usually save lots of time.
Enter: Command-comma.
Use it whenever you want to open up the preferences for the application currently in “focus.”
Granted, this is not earth shattering, but it definitely is a time saver. And, it totally beats the pants off of anything Windows has to offer. (Please, if anyone knows of a keyboard shortcut in Windows that does the same thing as Tools -> Options, please pass it along.)
