We are proud to announce our new haxie, called Menu Master.
Menu Master is a haxie that allows you to change or remove menu shortcut keys in any application with ease. It takes about 15 seconds to learn how to use Menu Master, and saves you lots of time later because you can use the shortcuts you defined and do not bother remembering which ones the developer of the software invented for you. Additionally, you can set shortcuts to any menu item that had no shortcuts, or remove shortcuts from menu items. Menu Master gives you a complete control over your menus, all just for affordable US $10.
Features:
- Assign new shortcut keys to menu items in any application (switch languages quickly with new shortcuts, for example);
- Redefine existing shortcut keys in the menu items to the ones you like and remember;
- Remove unneeded shortcut keys (Cmd+Option+D anyone?);
- Easy to configure as it comes in usual Preference Pane form, accessible through System Preferences.
And to save you from reading the manual, here's how you use Menu Master:
- Pull down the menu you want to change;
- Select the menu item you want to redefine shortcut for;
- Press the new shortcut combination while keeping the menu item selected, or press Delete key to remove a shortcut;
- That's it! Menu Master will now remember your change and automatically do it every time you start that application.

Jeeez,
Yesterday I mastered the keycombo option L for Full Screen and option N for Go To Page in Acrobat Reader 5 to do a flawless pdf presentation. If this had come yesterday I could have used my favorite option F and alt option P instead. :) Am I gonna buy this or what....
It's nice to see occasional things developed at Unsanity without feeding the RSS crowd. This took me by surprise anyway. (grin)
Posted by: Ton on April 8, 2003 12:03 PMSince I support the better Developers through purchasing their products Unsanity ranks high on my list and I own all of what Unsanity has to offer. I have got to say Unsanity is becoming prolific in their software development and I have not been disappointed with any its software. Please keep up the good work. MenuMaster is great!
Posted by: CREB on April 8, 2003 12:43 PMWell, seems the only shortcut I want to change is Finder's New Folder.
Wait.. does this work with PhotoShop? Command+H for Hide, anyone?
No!!! It doesn't work! I NEED THIS SHORTCUT!
Is there a reason it doesn't work in Photoshop?
Wait.. seems it just doesn't work in the Application menu.

Posted by: Jason Anderson on April 8, 2003 5:16 PMJason,
Make a selection in Photoshop, and then press CMD-H. You'll notice that your selection will disappear, but try drawing on the image and notice that your selection is still intact. CMD-H in Photoshop toggles the dashed line's display on selections, which is why Hide doesn't work in Photoshop. You can remap CMD-H in Photoshop with MenuMaster.
Posted by: Matt Martinez on April 8, 2003 6:20 PMGood lord people, the Command+H (Hide) in Photoshop 7.0 can be obtained DIRECTLY through the program itself...
Open Photoshop.../Preferences/General/
Under the "Options" box area there is a "Use System Shortcut Key's" option...check that, and you have yourself the system wide commands.
Easy, eh?
Posted by: Kent Corser on April 8, 2003 6:33 PMOh, thank you thank you thank you.
Here, have $10. Please.
Thank you.
PS. Thank you.
Posted by: ScottW on April 8, 2003 11:15 PMDoesn't seem to work at all in any Carbon apps.
If this is true, why is this worth money? Developer Tools is free, and Interface Builder can be used to do the same thing with any Cocoa app.
Here's the way I see it: If you're gonna change keyboard shortcuts for menu items, this is the sort of thing you're gonna do maybe once or twice for the duration of your computer's life.
So, Menu Master saves you a few minutes worth of configuration that you will probably never touch for years to come.
If it doesn't work any better than Interface Builder does, what's the point? Menu Master has to be able to support Carbon apps.
Posted by: Inspired on April 8, 2003 11:40 PMOne cool idea, though:
I think it would be neat if I could use MM to set keyboard shortcuts that involve more than one keystroke.
So for example, I could press Command+F, then S for Save, Command+E, then C for copy, etc.
This would allow for two things:
1 - Allow users to group commands and shortcuts that have similar functions (ex. by menu).
2 - Allow commonly-used commands to have shortcuts that make sense (what's with Z for undo and W for close?).
I think you can see where I'm going with this.... Microsoft had a good idea when they invented the ALT key. I think that it would make sense to implement the same functionality in OS X as well.
Posted by: Inspired on April 8, 2003 11:46 PMI don't know what Carbon apps people think it doesn't work in - it works in GraphicConverter and Acrobat Reader for me anyway. It even works in BBEdit, although I'm avoiding that since BBEdit has its own built-in.
I'm disappointed to see that it doesn't work in Fire with the Next Chat Window command, which is mapped to Command-Right Arrow (likewise, previous is Left Arrow). Very evil. Does MM require a letter to work? I'd just like to get rid of those key combos since they're overriding text editing commands I'm accustomed to.
