I have a layout where I don't want Enter Find Mode or Show All Records to behave in their normal way; without stripping away ⌘-F and ⌘-J functionality, I want to narrow the scope of what gets found when they do that. So a quick trip to Custom Menus and now homemade scripts replace those two menu functions (and their concomitant keystroke equivalents). Works nicely.
Then I watched my end users work and realized that many of them use those silly mode-widget buttons at the top above the "rolodex" and the layout menu in order to go into Find Mode. Oh great, I think to myself. I bet that invokes a plain-vanilla Find Mode.
it doesn't
The widget-buttons invoke my script instead. Very nice. (So does the older Mode menu-thingie at the bottom of the screen next to the Show Status Area widget, by the way).
