Keyboard shortcuts
Standard Microsoft Windows navigation keys are used in addition to application-specific keys.
You can use keyboard shortcuts to navigate through the application and perform tasks. If you are using a screen reader, you might want to maximize your window so the keyboard shortcut table is completely expanded and accessible. You might want to turn high contrast on in your operating system so the lines in diagrams and charts in the application are more visible.
Note: The following keyboard shortcuts are based on U.S. standard keyboards.
