Keyboard ShortcutsKeyboard ShortcutsOmniscope supports keyboard shortcuts to help you perform common tasks quickly. Because Omniscope is a Java rather than a Windows-only application, some shortcuts will differ from those used by Windows and/or Microsoft Office applications. For example, in Visokio applications, Ctrl+F launches the Manage Fields wizard rather than Windows Find. Most Omniscope shortcuts are indicated on the command menus, but some, such as those used for Table View data entry and cell text editing do not have corresponding menus. (Note: Apple Macs use the the Command key rather than Ctrl key + another key.) Omniscope Table View cell editing shortcuts:Omniscope displays cells for editing in the Table View. To access the full body of text in a cell, double-click on the cell, or right-click and choose Edit this cell. The cell will expand to allow you to read many lines, but you cannot scroll down within a cell. The following keyboard shortcuts can be used to speed navigation an editing of cells containing many lines of text. They are also useful for copying values into cells down many rows or across many columns. Ctrl+End moves the cursor to the end/bottom of the text in the cell. Column headers are used to set sorting behaviour and cannot be used to select an entire column. To select all, or most of a long column, hold the Shift key down and drag the scroll bar to the bottom of the target range. Then click on the last cell in the range and all intermediate cells will be selected and become targets for edits like copy and delete. Note: be careful when pasting large, rectangular tables of values into the Table View. If you specify a target range of more rows and columns than are contained in the data you are pasting in, the application may duplicate the records to fill the target space. If you are not sure how many rows and columns you are importing via paste, create a large number of new rows and columns and select only the single upper left-hand cell as the target. Depending on the format/source of the incoming pasted data (web page tables, for example) all of the values might be pasted into that single cell. If this happens, then you will have to specify a rectangular target area exactly the correct size to receive the data. If you make it a bit larger, be sure to check for and delete any duplicated records.
