Hi,

I use Wordfast Classic on Word for Mac and the toolbar disappeared again. I'm having a very hard time trying to recover it. In the meantime, I'm forced to use shortcuts only. Could you please advise me as to Mac versions of the most common ones?

I obviously know “next segment” and “restore source only”, but can't figure out “copy source” and “end translation session/close segment” for example.

Thanks so much for your help. Yet again…

Does the user manual help?

Microsoft shortcuts are no good Jan 12, 2021

I’m afraid Microsoft shortcuts won’t work (I know them quite well) as my MacBook keyboard does not feature some keys, as End, Insert and Delete 😭

Well, I don't know about the latest version of WFC, but in my older version of WFC I can go Setup > UI, and there choose which icons appear on the toolbar, as well as customize the shortcuts (and see what the current shortcuts are). Does your version of WFC have something similar?

I wonder if the article at https://www.wordfast.net/wiki/Keyboard_shortcuts_on_Macs could help you.
