Using Keyboard Shortcuts

In many cases, Centriq software allows for "mouse-less" entry and navigation through the use of keyboard shortcuts. Below is a list of common shortcuts; however, some modules have additional options.

<Enter>

“Clicks” the active button.

<Tab>

Moves from field to field accepting entry; moves from button to button.

<Shift>+<Tab>

Moves back to previous fields.

<Ctrl>+<Tab>

Moves you from window to window, when multiple windows are open.

Spacebar

Checks or unchecks a check box.

Down & Up Arrows

Selects the first listed entry. Press the down arrow key again to select the second entry in the list, and so on. Press the up arrow to move back up through the list.

<Ctrl>+<C> & <Ctrl>+<V>

To copy text, highlight the text and press <Ctrl>+<C> on your keyboard. To paste, place the cursor where you want to paste the text and press <Ctrl>+<V>.

<Esc>

Clears the selected field within a grid; closes the window when not in a grid.

<F4>

Displays all the options in a drop-down list. Use the arrow keys to highlight an option, and press the spacebar to select it.
