Function Key Assignment

You can quickly accomplish tasks you perform frequently in OPERA by using shortcut keys to navigate within screens and menus. You can always know what the function keys do by displaying a template, or lookup table, showing the use of the function keys. The information provided from these keys is available from anywhere in the OPERA program. When activated, they do not effect what you are doing, yet they provide you with specific information you require on a field or provide current information about your property.

You can open the OPERA function keys lookup table by pressing the Ctrl+F1 keys. The template displays a complete list of additional functions and navigation keys available within OPERA.

General Key Assignment

Shortcuts refer to the U.S. keyboard layout. Keys on other layouts may not correspond exactly to the keys on a U.S. keyboard. If the language of the keyboard layout you are using doesn't match the language you set for OPERA, you may have to make adjustments when using shortcut keys or change your keyboard layout.
