Using Keyboard Equivalents
When you use keyboard equivalents, note that:
-
The underlined letter that typically appears in a menu title, menu item, or button text is called a mnemonic. Because Oracle considers mnemonics to be self-documenting, additional documentation for mnemonics is not necessarily provided. You can use mnemonics where they are implemented.
-
Some mnemonics are repeated. For example, on the File menu, the underlined mnemonic
D
is used for both theDelete
and theDeactivate
menu items. When mnemonics are repeated, the first time you pressD
, the item to be deleted is highlighted. PressEnter
to delete or pressD
again to highlight theDeactivate
button, and then pressEnter
to deactivate. -
Keystrokes listed are standard for PCs. iOS standard keys may be different.
