Using PanelBuilder

This chapter describes the basics of PanelBuilder including how to get help
and how to use the menus and the keyboard.

Press F1 to display a help screen relevant to the screen or object you’re
working on.

Certain keys are used to move through menus, enter data, or work with
objects on a screen. This section illustrates these keys and describes their
functions within the PanelBuilder software.

Menu Keys

The menu keys help you move quickly through the menus and the options
they provide.

The Escape key closes an open menu.

The Enter key chooses the highlighted option.

The Up and Down arrow keys move upward and downward through the
menu options. The Down arrow also opens a menu.

The Left and Right arrow keys move horizontally through a selection of
menus. These keys also close a menu and open the next one to the right or
the left.

The space bar moves horizontally through a selection of menus, or
vertically through the options of a single menu.
