Keyboard shortcuts
You can use the keyboard shortcut keys to perform tasks in HCL OneTest™ UI.
Keyboard shortcut keys include:
-
Underlined letter in a dialog box field label
-
Underlined letter in a menu command
-
Extended accelerator key, such as ALT, CTRL, and SHIFT
-
Function keys F1 through F12
Dialog boxes
You can refer to the dialog boxes in HCL OneTest™ UI to find the keyboard shortcuts. When you open a dialog box, press the ALT key to display the underlined letter in a field label. Most field labels show the letter of the keyboard shortcut underlined. For example, D is the shortcut key for the Devices field label in the Connect to Device dialog box. In HCL OneTest™ UI, press the ALT key, and the shortcut key to execute a command. For example, open the Connect to Device dialog box, press ALT to display the keyboard shortcuts in the dialog box, and press ALT+D to move to the Devices field in the Connect to Device dialog box.
Menu commands
You can refer to the menus in HCL OneTest™ UI to find the keyboard shortcuts. Most menu items show the equivalent keyboard shortcut to the right of the menu item or the letter of the keyboard shortcut underlined. For example, F is the shortcut key for the File menu. In HCL OneTest™ UI, press the ALT key, and then press the shortcut key to execute a command. For example, press ALT+F to open the File menu on the menu bar.
