Shortcuts
Shortcut keys provide access to creating and modifying user defined command keys. Multiple shortcut key sets can be defined. These key sets can be used in support of multiple users sharing a common workstation or multiple design modes. The shortcut key dialog manager displays a list of commands and allows the designer to assign associated keys.
As you become more proficient with Punch! Shark, you may elect to use the shortcut keys to issue commands. Shortcut keys require less mouse movements to access frequently used commands, but require that the user memorize command keys or position a “cheat” sheet nearby. This chapter describes features for accessing capability through the typical Apple character prefix and special SharCAD keys.
