Shortcut Key Summary

The following table summarizes the keyboard shortcuts (hot keys) available in the system:

Note: It is possible that your specific product supports additional shortcut keys. Refer to your product documentation for more information.

Note: It is possible that some of the following system accelerator keys may duplicate shortcuts, or hot keys, that are predefined within your browser. If this is the case, the browser's functionality commonly takes precedence.

Note: It is possible that your implementation uses one of the accelerator keys listed below for a different purpose. For example, in some languages, a shortcut key may be used for a special character in the alphabet not included on all keyboards. It is possible to turn off any of the Alt+letter shortcuts and Ctrl+Alt+letter shortcuts listed below using a properties file entry. The property is ouaf.shortcut.ignore.altKeys= where one or more letters may be entered separated by a comma. When setting this property, the system automatically enables a 'potential alternate key' for certain functions (see the table below). Refer to the Server Administration Guide for more information about the property.
