Help page with all keyboard shortcuts
« on: May 13, 2007, 07:01:57 AM »
I'd like to be one or two clicks away from a list of all the keyboard shortcuts.

I can't find the list anywhere.   

Thanks!

Same here-> Bob once emailed me a list of them (copied below, but they're from v4.0 so out of date) -

A current list of all shortcuts is definitely key and should be easily accessible in the documentation, and straight from within the program. (I know they're listed in the menu, but a comprehensive list is useful)

Go to the announcements section of the forum and look for PM manual download link, in the PDF the full list of shortcuts is available, (some indeed need a bit of a refresh)

Just a post to bubble this back up up from the dregs of history... I think it would be helpful to have the  list as an option to the help menu...

And if the list of shortcuts isn't cast in stone, let's make the question mark key (or CMD/CTRL + ?) make this list appear.

Thx!

Ron

If you are using Mac OSX there is a great (but a bit pricey) programme which reveals the short-cuts for any application just by holding down the command key. You can also go straight to those short-cuts. Check it out here:     http://www.ergonis.com/products/keycue/index.html
