Navigating in FeedClip
You work in FeedClip with the mouse, the keyboard, or a combination of both.
This manual includes instructions for both mouse and keyboard commands,
allowing you to use the method you prefer. You may generally find keyboard
operation easier.
Using the Mouse
To execute a mouse command, move the mouse pointer to a given menu or
button, then click the left mouse button. This manual uses the term click when
you press the mouse button once; double-click when you press the mouse
button twice in quick succession; press when you press and hold the mouse
button.
Using the Keyboard
The keyboard is customized with color-coded keys that allow you to see
commands at a glance. Keyboard commands are either a single keystroke or a
key combination. You execute key combinations such as
Ctrl+TAB by pressing
and holding the first key in the combination, and then pressing the second key.
A complete list of the keyboard keys and functions is in Appendix A.
Using the Shortcut Menus
FeedClip also makes use of right-click shortcut menus, which provide a quick
way to access relevant commands without having to move the mouse pointer to
the toolbar or menu bar. To access these menus, press the right mouse button
once and a menu appears. The commands that appear depend on the position of
the mouse pointer when you right-click. For example, when you right-click in
the playlist on the Record tab, the shortcut menu provides quick access to
recording commands.
If you are comfortable using a mouse, shortcut menus provide a valuable means
of accessing commands quickly.
