Hi all, I love finding and using new keyboard shortcuts but I couldn't find a site that lists them for more than one program. I have started to list them out on my website, so far I have covered Windows and Chrome. Please have a look and post any that I have missed here! Or add them for other programs that people might find helpful! http://www.key-bored.net/keyboard-shortcuts/ So far we have: Windows Shortcuts CTRL + ESC Open start menu ALT + TAB Switch between windows SHIFT + ALT + TAB Reverses through windows TAB Jump to next text box / item SHIFT + TAB Jumps back to the previous text box / tab SHIFT + F10 Performs the same action as right click CTRL + SHIFT + ESC Opens Windows task manager CTRL + A Select all CTRL + Z Undo CTRL + Y Redo CTRL + Q Quit application CTRL + W Close window / tab CTRL + R Refresh window CTRL + F Opens search box CTRL + C Copy CTRL + V Paste CTRL + X Cut CTRL + B Bold text CTRL + U Underline text CTRL + I Italicise text CTRL + N New window CTRL + O Open new file within program CTRL + F Opens find dialogue box CTRL + H Opens find and replace CTRL + TAB Cycles through program windows CTRL + SHIFT + TAB Reverse cycles through program windows.

WK+e - starts the Windows Explorer WK+f - starts the Find in Files dialog WK+Ctrl+f - starts the Find a Computer on the Network dialog WK+M - minimizes all the windows to clear the desktop WK+Shift+M - restores all the minimized windows WK+r - starts the Run dialog WK+F1 - starts Windows Help WK+Pause - starts System Properties Windows Key + TAB: Cycles through the open programs through the taskbar. If you have multiple windows open, hold down the windows key and tap the TAB key and the computer will cycle through your open windows. This is very similar to using ALT + TAB but without, what I like to call, the “mini window”. Alt F4...CLOSES CURRENT WINDOW
Lot of shortcuts some available here : Windows Logo (Display or hide the Start menu) Windows Logo+BREAK (Display the System Properties dialog box) Windows Logo+D (Display the desktop) Windows Logo+M (Minimize all of the windows) Windows Logo+SHIFT+M (Restore the minimized windows) Windows Logo+E (Open My Computer) Windows Logo+F (Search for a file or a folder) CTRL+Windows Logo+F (Search for computers) Windows Logo+F1 (Display Windows Help) Windows Logo+ L (Lock the keyboard) Windows Logo+R (Open the Run dialog box) Windows Logo+U (Open Utility Manager)
You forgot ctrl+alt+delete. Ctrl +printscreen pastes the entire display to clipboard Ctrl+ shift + printscreen pastes the active window to clipboard Ctrl + arrows also advances you to next empty cell in that direction in excel also works for populated cells if the next cell is blank Substitute home or end for arrows in above and navigation is end to end horizontally Ctrl + shift + arrows/home/end as above but selects along the way. Also works by the word/line in msword and most notepad editors Ctrl + page up/down. Navigates pages in excel workbook. Add shift to select multiple sheets and make edits to all at once Win + L locks the machine Ctrl + f opens find dialogue Ctrl + h opens find and replace Alt + f4 closes active window Alt + ASCII codes (numlock on and four digit codes entered to numpad) generates symbols. IIRC 0160 is € Ctrl + alt + 4 (or e) gives € All the additions I can think of now without being on the machine. It's all in motor memory G Sent from my HTC Desire HD using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
Might not fit your purpose but ctrl plus leftclicks selects mutiple cells in excel. Handy if you want cells that are not next to each other. Sent from my HTC Desire HD using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
Damn you longweight, I'll be thinking of these all night now! F2 opens rename for icons in windows or steps into edit a cell in excel Shift + delete in windows bypasses recycle bin Sent from my HTC Desire HD using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
Haha that has been happening to me all weekend! Some of yours are new to me and sound very helpful! I'm going to add more to the current list and then probably do lists for SFF keyboards such as the Poker, Pure and HHKB. Think that those will be helpful?
Would be interesting to see how many shortcuts require fn layers on pure, poker versus race and choc mini and the like. Sent from my HTC Desire HD using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
F7 is spellchecker. Add shift for thesaurus in word, think it works in outlook too. F9 is calculate in excel. Handy if like me you have a lot of formulae on one file and a pos corporate laptop. F4 when you have selected a cell/range in excel cycles through absolute reference options for the selection. (I.e. adds the $ in) Sent from my HTC Desire HD using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
