There are many keyboard shortcuts (or hotkeys) available. Hotkeys help to reduce the 'amount of clicks' required for performing a specific task. The following tables list the available keyboard shortcuts.
Note that the 'Ctrl' key may be dropped where indicated (i.e. [Ctrl +]) if Enable Cut/Copy/Paste without 'Ctrl' Key in the Environment category of the Application Options is selected.
