Quick Counting - Keyboard Shortcuts and FP Counting Options

Default Short Cuts

The following Automated features help speed up your counting:

• Cursor position ‘jumps’ to last inserted node – This feature speeds up data entry enabling immediate editing of the last inserted node. When positioned at a parent node and inserting a child node, the cursor will focus on the child node enabling immediate editing of the name. (You can optionally toggle this feature on or off via Main Menu /Options/User Options /Node Name Insert Defaults /Auto Edit Last Inserted Node Name”)
• SCOPE retains name of last inserted node – This feature speeds up data entry of nodes with similar names. When inserting a node under any tree, SCOPE retains the name of the last tree node entered and allows you to then modify the name. (You can optionally toggle this feature on or off via Main Menu /Options/User Options /Node Name Insert Defaults /Use Last Inserted Node Name”)
• Double click to see Node Details - provides quick entry of Node Details (You can optionally toggle this feature on or off via Main Menu /Options/User Options /Node Name Insert Defaults /Double Click Displays Nodes Details Screen”)
