Thanks for your your prompt answer! It is very kind of you to be so available to your customers.
A simple solution to this problem would have been to just press Shift
+ F1 and then uncheck the checkbox for the Shift modifier.
Already tried, didn't work ^_^
I've thought about this already, but then abandoned the idea of
creating a Screen Settings behaviour that exposed all the possible
screen settings as actions since the list would be just too long -
especially with two or more displays. But I keep thinking about an
elegant solution to this problem.
I understand, specially after seeing the list for my screens! I've come up with a solution, but my current skills prevent me from implementing/trying it: perhaps you could take the short list from the Displays button that shows on the menu bar. The list is generated with the last 3, 5 or whatever (user chooses) configurations used for each screen, and probably you can import it directly from the script that generates it. In fact, if you add the brigtness slider and the "Show menu on..." otpions to those that show in that menu, you should have a quite complete (and familiar to the user) Screen Settings menu.
Is it just the brightness controls you'd like to map in a behaviour - or also resolution/ refreshrate/ depth/.. changes?
Just the brightness controls, so I can control the computer's volume with the up and down keys on the remote and brightness with the left and right ones. Re-mapping CD ejecting to any of the four arrows (button held) and setting "Toggle Screen mirroring" (pressed and held, too) to another of the buttons would be everything it'd take to replicate all the functions in the F-keys of any mac. It'd make a very nice Default behaviour.
The problem is that I can't find the actions I need to do so on the list... would you think about it? That'd be wonderful!
Thanks again for your time. Regards,
Diego.
