Keyboard shortcuts

In the help file keyboard shortcuts will appear whenever they are applied. To display the Property Panel for example, the keyboard shortcut will be displayed in the text as [Ctrl+P] or [Cmd+P]. By default, the keyboard shortcuts for Windows operating systems will be shown first, followed by the MAC operating system shortcuts, if they differ.

For keyboard shortcuts in which you press two or more keys simultaneously, the keys to press are separated by a plus sign (+).

When alternative keyboard shortcuts are available, the alternatives are separated by ‘or’.

Below you find an overview of the available keyboard shortcuts in DTX Studio™ Implant.
