Function keys<br />

Working with WSCAD 5<br />

Even with a graphical interface the function keys should not be forgotten, as they can<br />

also be used to give fast access to frequently used commands. For instance you will<br />

often find the key very useful for fitting your drawing to the current window,<br />

and for rapid Zooming, for Snap mode switching or for<br />

Grid display switching.<br />

Every experienced Windows user, will of course, already be familiar with function key:<br />

for On-line help or WebHelp which will give access to the whole of the reference<br />

manual and there are also “topical” hints and tips.<br />

The full list of the available function keys is shown belows:<br />
