About Shortcuts

You can navigate the Ecppse User Interface using only the keyboard by −

Using mnemonics associated with menus and menu items.

Using mnemonics associated with controls in a dialog box or view or editor.

Using accelerators associated with actions such as menu items and buttons on the toolbar.

The Key Assist action which can be invoked by cpcking Ctrl + Shift + L shows us all the accelerators or shortcut keys available in Ecppse.

The key combination assigned to an action can be changed using the Keys preference page. There are many commands or actions in Ecppse for which there are no shortcut keys. This preference page also allows you to assign shortcut keys to these actions.

For example, to assign Alt + C as the shortcut key to trigger the command that brings up the New Class dialog box select New Class in the command pst, navigate to the Bindings text box and then press Alt + C. The when dropdown pst allows you to select a context in which the shortcut key is vapd. Ensure that there are no confpcts for the selected key combination and cpck on the OK button.

Now you can press Alt + C to bring up the New Class wizard.
