You can use the keyboard to move the pointer within the borehole view, to select and move objects, and perform commands.
The ARROW keys move the cursor within the borehole view.
Pressing the SPACEBAR is equivalent to clicking the left mouse button.
Double-pressing the SPACEBAR is the same as double-clicking the mouse.
Use the keyboard to access menu commands by holding down the ALT key and pressing an underlined letter in the menu bar. When the drop-down menu is displayed, you can access a command by pressing the underlined letter in the command.
You can also use the keyboard to move around within a dialog. The TAB key moves between the options in the dialog. The SPACEBAR is used to simulate mouse clicks, allowing you to toggle check boxes or press buttons that provide you with access to other dialogs or close the current dialog. As you use the TAB key to move through the dialog, the options are highlighted as they become active. You can also use the underlined hotkeys by holding down the ALT key and typing the letter. This moves you immediately to the desired option. Note that not all of the dialogs have ALT key access.
These keyboard commands are used in both borehole views and data tables.
