Customizing keyboard shortcuts
You can associate your own keyboard shortcuts with DataWindow Designer
menu items.
Tip
Creating keyboard shortcuts means you can use the keyboard instead of the
mouse in many situations, such as changing libraries, objects, or connections,
by creating shortcuts for the File>Recent menu items.
❖ To associate a keyboard shortcut with a menu item:
1 Select Tools>Keyboard Shortcuts from the menu bar.
The keyboard shortcuts for the current menu bar display.
Keyboard shortcuts in a painter or tool
In a painter, the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box includes both menu items
as well as additional actions that apply to the current painter or tool. These
nonmenu actions are listed under Additional Global Shortcuts and
Additional Painter Shortcuts.
2 Select a menu item with no shortcut or a menu item with a default shortcut
that you want to change and then put the cursor in the Press Keys For
Shortcut textbox.
