| ShortCut | Description |
|
| Alt-` | Analogous to the alt-tab mechanism for switching between windows on
your desktop |
| Alt-1, Alt-2, etc.. | In a window with multiple tabs, switch to the first, second, [etc..]
tab |
| Ctrl-w | Closes the currently focused window |
| Ctrl-n | When a view of a listing is in focus, a shortcut for the command New
on the listing's elements type. For example, if viewing a listing
of Persons, instead of right-clicking New in the titlebar,
just press Ctrl-n |
|
| Ctrl-f | A shortcut that is active in listings, that places the focus on the
search field |
|
| F12 | Invokes JExplose, a feature similar to Apple's Exposé,
that will automatically scale and sort all of the windows on your
desktop in order to facilitate the selection and management of multiple
windows. This feature can also be invoked from the Desktop's context
menu (right-click on an empty spot on your desktop to bring up this
menu). |
|
| Ctrl-command | When invoking a command that generates a view window: if you find
yourself frequently repositioning the generated window, then this
shortcut is for you. By holding down the Ctrl key while invoking the
command (either clicking on the button or right-clicking on a context
menu item), then the generated window will be bound to your mouse:
it will follow your mouse's movements. When you find the ideal place
to position the newly-created window, just click with your mouse to
pin it down into place. |
|
| Shift-Command | When invoking a command that generates a view, holding down the Shift
key at the same time will prompt how you'd like the new view generated:
in a new window, a new tab, or in place (i.e. replacing current view). |
|
| Shift-Click | Click on a JMatter internal window while holding down the shift key
to move or drag the window about. This is the same as dragging the
titlebar to move the window, but gives you a much larger surface area
to work with. This feature is the same as the well-known alt-click
on linux desktops. |
|
| Ctrl-Scrollwheel | In the context of a calendar window, can change the resolution of
the calendar cells from one minute to one hour using this gesture
(for either day view and week view). |
|
| Alt-/ | Focus on selected item in Class Bar |
|
| Ctrl-/ | Open currently selected view's context menu. A keyboard equivalent
for right-clicking. |
|
| Ctrl-I | Invoke JMatter's visual command interface (similar to quicksilver
or gnome-do) |
|
| Ctrl-q | Quit the application |
