You can navigate the Mapping Editor canvas using the Tab key and the keyboard arrow keys.
The Tab key enables you to navigate to the next object on the canvas and select it. When no objects are selected, the system selects the node that is closest to the upper-left corner of the Mapping Editor canvas. The order of navigation is determined by the position in which the objects appear on the canvas. The system follows a Z navigation path.
Within a selected attribute group, you can navigate between attributes using the up and down keys.
When positioned on an input attribute, the left arrow key enables you to navigate to the incoming mapping line. There is only one incoming mapping line for each attribute. The right arrow key is not active.
When you select an object and then press the Delete key, the selected object is deleted from the canvas. You can delete the following objects:
Operators. Warehouse Builder prompts you to confirm the delete before the delete occurs.
Mapping lines from or to an attribute. You cannot delete mapping lines that start or end at an attribute group or header.
To provide easy access to the elements of the Connect Operators Dialog, the following mnemonic keys have been assigned. Table 36-5 lists the keyboard sequences and descriptions for mnemonic keys.
