What are all of the keyboard shortcuts?

Click here to see a list of all the shortcuts. You can print them all for reference or use MyScreen to capture and print just the sets that you need most.

Are there any "hidden" commands?
|
Here are some things I use sometimes that are not available on the menus.
|
|
1. | Press Shift+Ctrl+Alt+M to turn on the display of the screen's mouse coordinates. They will appear in the Schemes list area of the toolbar. You will see X and Y position on screen and the width and height of any currently marqueed selections. Press the keys again to hide the coordinates. MyScreen will not remember this setting between sessions.
|
|
|
|
2. | Press Shift+Ctrl+Alt+F to open the Zoom Filters choice dialog box. This box lets you choose what algorithm you want used when you use MyScreen's zoom commands. The default for Zoom In and Zoom Out is Lanczos3. You can experiment with others to suit your taste. MyScreen will remember your selection between sessions if you select the Make Default option.

4. | Pressing the keyboard arrow keys while using the Caret Style will change the angle of the caret. MyScreen will remember this setting between sessions.
