I’m running Leopard and do all my Java development in eclipse. Some of the shortcuts work such as Command-1 which will do a quick suggest. However how do I get the Function Keys (F5 for refresh in the package explorer) to work? Right now it brings up spaces or whatever System Preferences maps to that.
What about Control-click into a breakpoint when I’m debugging and want to go directly to the chosen function? Is there a way for my eclipse keyboard shortcuts to take precedence over other programs?
i’m running eclipse 3.4 though I’ve had this problem since eclipse 3.2.
Its been a while since I used eclipse on the mac but I think you have to go to Preferences.app and check the ‘keyboard’ pane. There should be an option that chooses if its Fn-function-key or just function-key for the key press. After that, it would be Fn+F5 for expose and just F5 for F5. You will lose the ability to dim the screen and adjust the sound from the keyboard.
