4.3. Keyboard Shortcuts

Cursor keys may be used to activate another node in the structure. Use left/right to activate the nearest left/right brother-node of the active node and up/down to activate the active node's ancestor (parent)/its leftmost son.

Use Shift+left/Shift+right to activate the nearest node on the left/right of the active node within the active node's level.

Tab and Shift+Tab keys activate the next/previous node on the way along the tree structure.

Enter runs the Node->Edit Attributes command.

To edit the tree structure with keyboard only, use the shortcuts bound to the User-defined menu commands. Most important of those are:

Ctrl+Insert (Cut Subtree)

Cuts the whole subtree of the active node and stores it in an iternal clipboard. It may be then pasted as a subtree of any of the remaining nodes with the Paste Subtree command.

Shift+Insert (Paste Subtree)

Pastes the tree saved in an internal clipboard during the last call of the Cut Subtree command as a subtree of the active node.

Alt+G (Go to...)

Promts user to enter an ordinal number of a tree and displays the tree.

, “comma” (View->Previous Tree)

Displayes the previous tree in the current file. Note, that this shorcuts operates on the focused view only, even if button is pressed and all views are tied.

. “dot” (View->Next Tree)

Displayes the next tree in the current file. Note, that this shorcuts operates on the focused view only, even if button is pressed and all views are tied.
