<h2 id="using_shortcuts">Using Shortcuts</h2>

<p>This document uses the following format for listing shortcuts:</p>

<p><strong>Example:</strong></p>

<table class="defaultTable">
<colgroup>
  <col class="commandColumn"></col>
  <col class="osFirstColumn"></col>
  <col class="osSecondColumn"></col>
  <col class="osThirdColumn"></col>
</colgroup>
<thead>
  <tr>
    <th>Command</th>
    <th>Windows</th>
    <th>Mac OS</th>
    <th>Linux or Unix</th>
  </tr>
</thead>
<tbody class="tbody-default">
  <tr>
    <td>Copy</td>
    <td>Ctrl+C</td>
    <td>Cmd+C</td>
    <td>Ctrl+C</td>
  </tr>
</tbody>
</table>

<p>To perform a command, press the buttons listed together at the same time.
  For example, to copy in Windows, press Ctrl and C at the same time.</p>

<p><strong>Tip</strong>: The plus sign (+) means that you must press two keys
  surrounding the plus sign at the same time. If there is more than one plus
  sign (such as Ctrl+Shift+C), it means that all three buttons surrounding the
  plus sign must be pressed at the same time.</p>

<p><strong>Abbreviations:</strong></p>

<ul>
  <li>Ctrl = Control key</li>
  <li>Cmd = Command key on the Mac OS Keyboard</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Note</strong>: Some keyboard shortcuts perform different functions
  based on cursor location (focus). For example, if you press Home on Windows
  while viewing a web page, &brandShortName; will move to the top of the web
  page. However, if you press Home on Windows while the cursor is in a text
  field, the cursor will go to the beginning of the text field.</p>
