Save keyboard shortcut as. How to use the save button on your keyboard - tips and solutions

Hotkeys are a combination of two or three keys on your keyboard that allows you to quickly perform a specific action. It does not use a mouse and does not need to invoke a menu.

There are many lists of hotkeys: for Windows 7, Windows 8, Mac, for Photoshop, for Word, AutoCAD, etc. But not all computer users use them.

Why do we need hotkeys, if any? Anything can happen: the mouse can break, and the wireless mouse can run out of battery.

Sometimes there are problems with the software when connecting a new mouse, and the old one has already "ordered a long life." Yes, and the touchpad can fail, and some simply do not know how to handle it properly, accustomed to clicking the mouse.

• We release the keys, now the selected fragment is copied to the clipboard (into the computer's RAM).

Outwardly, the Copy procedure does not appear on the computer screen. To "get" from the computer memory what we put there using the Copy hotkeys:

• you need to put the cursor in the place where you want to place the copied fragment, and

• press the hotkeys Paste: Ctrl + V.

Which keyboard shortcut can be used to copy text or objects to the clipboard?

To do this, there are hotkeys Copy: Ctrl + C and Paste: Ctrl + V. They can be called a sweet couple. They are most often used in one bundle, that is, first, using Ctrl + C, copy the selected fragment, then immediately paste it using the Ctrl + V keys.

Another sweet couple can be used to Copy & Paste - Ctrl + Insert and Shift + Insert. Here, as they say, it is a matter of taste.

You can assign your own keyboard shortcuts to all functions in the menu, it is also possible to call tools with a keyboard shortcut.

To change the keyboard shortcut for a menu item, you just need to select it with the mouse or arrow keys, press the desired shortcut key, and it will be installed immediately. The key combination must be either a special key, i.e. F3 , or a combination of modifiers, i.e. Ctrl-Shift-D ... You cannot assign just alphanumeric keys such as Q .

To prevent accidental changes to keyboard shortcuts, they can only be changed when the Edit option is enabled → Keyboard shortcuts... Changes are disabled by default, which is recommended for normal use.

All key combinations are stored in the ui / accel_map file in the user's directory, usually named ~ / .gwyddion (Unix) or Documents and Settings \\ gwyddion (MS Windows). Assigning keyboard shortcuts to tools can only be done by editing this file. Each line corresponds to the action invoked by this key combination. For example, the default line for the Mask Editor tool looks like this:

; (gtk_accel_path " / GwyToolMaskEditor "" ")

Semicolons indicate comments, i.e. strings. starting with them will be inactive. Hence, to assign the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-Shift-E to the "Mask Editor" tool, remove the semicolon to make this line active and write your keyboard shortcut in the empty space between the quotes:

(gtk_accel_path " / GwyToolMaskEditor "" e ")

As soon as you write the title, immediately save the documentso that in case of unforeseen circumstances, you do not lose the document on which you have been working all day!
