the "shift function" of Mac Leopard when using windows

[ronald2009mac]

I am struggling on how to execute this operation in Mac computer when using windows. While using windows on Mac Leopard, i want to do this operation "Shift + left click"...for example, from 1 - 10 items, I would only like to select 1,2,3,7,8,9,10 without selecting 4,5,6 items... I would be grateful for any help.Thanks

Try this:

System Preferences > Keyboard, Keyboard tab, then check "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys".

"When this option is selected, press the Fn key to use the special features printed on each key."

I'm not sure what you want ... in Windows, holding shift then clicking item 1 and item 10 will select 1-10. You can use control to select 1-3 and then 7-10.

Thought it was worth a try. It essentially disables the special functions, unless you use the Fn key, so I thought the shift + key might work too.

Yeah, you got my point...However, it did not work. Actually, im trying to use this operation in Erdas, ArcView, ArcGIS (all GIS and RS software). I was using this operation (easily) in Windows before..anyway, thanks a lot.
