You need to click in the view so it has the focus. Then doing a Control-i or 
Control-m should work.

By the way - we are getting better at having the IDV run on a Mac (now that I 
am running on a Mac) and are planning on transitioning our use of Control as a 
key modifier (which we use in a number of places) to Command on the Mac. This 
will occur in the next month or so.
