Keyboard Shortcuts

Accelerus Icon
 

Accelerator keys or keyboard shortcuts keys may be used to perform the most commonly-used functions, rather than using a mouse:

Alt keys are available for menu options and key data fields. You may access the option or field required by pressing the Alt key in conjunction with the underlined letter, eg Alt E will activate the Edit menu. Once a menu has been displayed, type the underlined letter of the option required to activate it.

Note that the Alt key needs to be pressed first in order for the shortcut letters to be underlined in the menus.

UI AltKeys

Keyboard shortcuts or accelerator key combinations allow you to perform common functions and, especially, activate icons or menu options rather than having to click them with the mouse.

Where keyboard shortcuts exist for menu options, they will appear beside the menu option, eg Ctrl + X shown above for Cut.
