QuickButtons
-
Version
1.2
QuickButtons allows you to create an AppBar with
buttons that simulate keystrokes. An AppBar is like
the Windows Task Bar - a bar that sits at the bottom
or top of your screen. A QuickButtons Button Bar will
sit happily above the Windows Task bar and will stay
visible at all times so that you can work with your
favourite applications and click on QuickButtons
buttons whenever you need to. By assigning tricky
keystrokes to large buttons complicated key sequences
can be reduced to a single click. Buttons can be made
quite large to increase the target area, reducing the
chance for error. QuickButtons was originally written
for Mark Weidmann, who suffers from MD, to try and
make the use of his computer easier and it is hoped
that QuickButtons will benefit others who find using
keyboard shortcuts difficult or prefer to use the
mouse. Mark enjoys playing on-line games and
communicating with his Internet friends. Some of his
games have awkward keystrokes that make playing them
rather less enjoyable. QuickButtons lets him replace
those keyboard sequences with simple buttons that are
always available on the screen. Multiple Button Bars
can be created and more than one can be active at one
time. This means you can have Button Bars for
different applications, or groups of applications. For
instance you could create a Microsoft Office Button
Bar, one for your favourite game and another for your
email program.
