Selecting functions

The function selection control is located in the menu bar and has two modes: Lookup and Search.

To switch between the two modes, click the function selection control.

Lookup

In lookup mode, the function selection controls displays a list of the function code and name of any menu item defined for the user group.

To launch a function, use the drop-down list and click the name of the shortcut you want to run. Alternatively, type the characters for the code into the selection box. As you type, the keystrokes are displayed in the status bar and the focus moves to the appropriate position in the list. You can use the up and down arrows to highlight a function, or compete typing the exact code. Click Enter to launch the function.

To clear the last character entered, click Backspace.

Search

In search mode, the function selection control supports entry of text. When you type the first character, the Search Results are displayed in the menu panel, showing all menu items that contain that character anywhere in the function name or code. As you continue to type, the set of matching menu items is reduced and dynamically displayed in the menu panel.
