Using Quartz Composer

I guess it's time we started collecting tricks, tips, and shortcuts into one reference page, to help users in their quest to become Quartz Composer masters.

If you know of a tip, trick, or shortcut, or just a good idea, feel free to add it to this list.

Shortcuts

  • When opening the Preferences pane, holding the "option" key will give you access to advanced settings, including private patches, advanced tooltips, software GL, software CI, and DisableVBLSync.

  • When editing source code (In Javascript, GLSL, or CoreImage), using "shift-cmd-i" will open up a static inspector for just that patch. This inspector won't change as you select other patches.

  • cmd-up and cmd-down will exit and enter macro patches in the editor.

  • Holding down "option" while in the File menu will let you save a Flattened copy -- this will "flatten" your virtual patches into the composition, for easier distribution.

  • Caps-Lock "on" prevents Marcos being entered with a double-click. (Kind of a Gotcha)
