How to create custom macOS shortcuts in Merlin Project?

You can simply use the option for keyboard shortcuts available in the Apple system.

For example, if you want to assign a keyboard shortcut to the 50% completion from the Edit menu, do the following:

Controlling Merlin Project With the Keyboard

Do you sometimes feel the same way, you absolutely have to finish a job, but you forgot to charge the wireless mouse? With the current Magic Mouse from Apple, you have a problem because you can't use it while it's charging. If you are lucky, you still have a mouse as a spare. I do not have one.

Good thing I like to work with the Mac keyboard shortcuts anyway, so I know many by heart.

⌘S for saving a file or
⌘P for opening the print menu

are regularly in use - even if the mouse is not exactly down.

Merlin Project: Base Costs Report as PDF

We received following question recently:

I’m using the latest version of Merlin Project on a mac and have created a project file where I needed to insert various base costs. I know Merlin Project sums them into planned, expected or actual base costs, but my client requested a detailed Base Costs Report to be printed or read in Preview or Acrobat Reader. The report should list all Base Costs on my project and export their properties. Is this possible?

To meet the requirement described above, you may use an AppleScript solution we developed.
