@DATABASE PGS.KEY @(C) 1996 SoftLogik Publishing Corporation @wordwrap @remark *** KEYBOARD SHORTCUT HELP *** @node MAIN "Keyboard Shortcuts" @{FG Highlight}MENU COMMANDS@{FG Text} Keyboard shortcuts for menu commands are shown in the menus. Most menu shortcuts use the Right Amiga key, which is represented by the @{B}@{I}A @{UB}@{UI}symbol in the menu. To use one of these shortcuts, hold down the Right Amiga key and press the character shown in the menu. Type menu commands followed by a caret ^ symbol and then a character can be executed by pressing the character while holding down the Ctrl key. Object menu commands followed by a single character can be executed by pressing the character without holding down a qualifier key. (If the Object menu shortcut is uppercase, Shift must be held down.) Only Right Amiga keyboard equivalents can be shown in the menus with AmigaDOS 2.0­2.1. The Type and Object menu keyboard equivalents will not be visible although they will still function. @{code} @{FG Highlight}Type Object@{FG Text} Style Tags ^ Y Style Tags y Attributes ^ A Edit e Font ^ F Information i Normal ^ N Line/Fill l Bold ^ B Trapping T Italic ^ I Text Wrap w Underline ^ U Text Anchor A Outline ^ O Duplicate d Reverse ^ R Transform t Shadow ^ H Rotate r Small Caps ^ M Move M Superscript ^ P Move to Page p Subscript ^ S Align a Heavier ^ 1 Distribute D Lighter ^ 2 Split Paths s Larger ^ 3 Merge Paths m Smaller ^ 4 Group g Line/Fill ^ L Ungroup u Tabs ^ T Lock L Insert Soft Hyphen ^ - Unlock U Uppercase ^ 5 Make Drawing K Lowercase ^ 6 Add to Drawing S Capitalized ^ 7 Dissolve Drawing W Page # ^ 8 Bring to Front f Previous Frame Page # ^ 9 Bring Forward F Next Frame Page # ^ 0 Send to Back b Send Backward B @{body} @{FG Highlight}OBJECT EDITING SHORTCUTS@{FG Text} @{FG Highlight}Nudging objects:@{FG Text} Object(s) must be selected with the Object tool to nudge them. @{code} @{U}Nudge objects@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Nudge left Left Arrow Nudget right Right Arrow Nudge up Up Arrow Nudge down Down Arrow * hold down a Shift key to move by 10% of the nudge amount @{body} @{FG Highlight}Move and scale contents of a frame:@{FG Text} A picture, drawing or EPS object must be selected with the Reshape tool to shift or scale the contents within its frame. @{code} @{U}Move contents of frame@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Shift left Left Arrow Shift right Right Arrow Shift up Up Arrow Shift down Down Arrow Center contents in frame Ctrl C * hold down a Shift key to move by 10% of the nudge amount @{U}Move frame only@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Shift left Ctrl Left Arrow Shift right Ctrl Right Arrow Shift up Ctrl Up Arrow Shift down Ctrl Down Arrow Center contents in frame Shift Ctrl C * hold down a Shift key to move by 10% of the nudge amount @{U}Scale contents of frame@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Increase by 5% Alt Up Arrow Increase by 1% Shift Alt Up Arrow Decrease by 1% Shift Alt Down Arrow Increase by 5% Alt Down Arrow Scale to fit in frame Ctrl F Scale and maintain aspect Shift Ctrl F @{body} @{FG Highlight}Path point editing:@{FG Text} You can edit the points in a path with the keyboard when at least one point in a path is selected with the Reshape tool. @{code} @{U}Select and delete points@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Select next point Alt Up Arrow Select previous point Alt Down Arrow Delete selected points Del @{U}Nudge points@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Nudge left Left Arrow Nudget right Right Arrow Nudge up Up Arrow Nudge down Down Arrow * hold down a Shift key to move by 10% of the nudge amount @{body} @{FG Highlight}TEXT EDITING SHORTCUTS@{FG Text} @{FG Highlight}Moving the insertion point:@{FG Text} You can move the insertion point when it has been placed into a text object with the Text tool by using the keyboard. @{code} @{U}Move the insertion point to@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Previous character Left Arrow Next character Right Arrow Previous word Alt Left Arrow Next word Alt Right Arrow Previous line Up Arrow Next line Down Arrow Previous paragraph Alt Up Arrow Next paragraph Alt Down Arrow Start of line Ctrl Left Arrow End of line Ctrl Right Arrow Start of column Ctrl Alt Up Arrow End of column Ctrl Alt Down Arrow Start of frame Ctrl Alt Left Arrow End of frame Ctrl Alt Right Arrow Start of article Ctrl Up Arrow End of article Ctrl Down Arrow @{body} @{FG Highlight}Text selection and deletion:@{FG Text} To select text with the keyboard, you must start a block at the insertion point, move the insertion point with the arrow keys (see above), and end the block. @{code} @{U}Select text@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Start block Ctrl W End block Ctrl Q Start an additional block Ctrl Z @{U}Delete text@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Previous character Backspace Next character Del Selected text Del Previous word Alt Backspace Next word Alt Del @{body} @{FG Highlight}Text Size:@{FG Text} Use these shortcuts to change the text size. @{code} @{U}Set type size@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Increase to next listed size Shift Ctrl > Increase by 1 pt Alt Shift Ctrl > Decrease by 1 pt Alt Shift Ctrl < Decrease to next listed size Shift Ctrl < @{U}Set horizontal scale@{UU} @{U}Shortcut@{UU} Increase by 5% Shift Ctrl } Increase by 1% Alt Shift Ctrl } Decrease by 1% Alt Shift Ctrl { Decrease by 5% Shift Ctrl { @{body} @{FG Highlight}Kerning, tracking and leading:@{FG Text} When a block of text is selected, using the kerning and tracking shortcuts will set the tracking.
