Shortcuts

The Shortcuts command opens the Shortcuts panel, which presents a list of available keyboard shortcuts for the currently open document and process. The command can be accessed by choosing View | Help | Shortcuts from any editor.

The Shortcuts panel is populated with the list of shortcuts that apply to the currently open and focused document in the design space. By keeping the panel visible on the desktop, the most relevant set of keyboard shortcut commands will be available while working on different types of documents. 

While editing a document, the panel will also display a list of shortcuts that apply to a current interactive command in the Schematic or PCB editor.

When a command is running, for example, after choosing Home | Place | Via to place a via on a PCB document, the panel will list all of the valid shortcuts for that stage of the interactive command. 

To find a shortcut key by its name or keystrokes rather than its function, use the list configuration options at the top of the panel to sort the content as required. The shortcut list can be sorted by a descriptive name, function category, or literal shortcut keys.
