Viewing Keyboard Shortcuts by Group

The Command List displays several groupings of commands, organized by Motion menus
as well as types of commands (Alignment, Tools, Transport, Go To, View, and Mark). Click
a group to quickly filter the Command list to display only the commands and keyboard
shortcuts in that group.

Searching for Commands

Use the Search field in the upper-right corner of the Command Editor to quickly locate
a command or keyboard equivalent. You can search by command name, description, or
keyboard shortcut.

To search for a keyboard shortcut

µ

In the Command Editor, click in the Search field type and a word that describes the
keyboard shortcut you need.

The Command List immediately displays the search results, listing all commands and key
combinations related to the search term.

You can further narrow your search by choosing a category from the Search field pop-up
menu. The menu options include All, Command, Description, and Key Equivalent.

Note: Do not use the Shift key to capitalize letters when typing in the Search field. The
Search field recognizes the Shift key as a modifier key in a keyboard shortcut.

You can use the Search field in conjunction with the virtual keyboard to highlight keyboard
shortcuts.
