Keyboard shortcuts
Why use keyboard shortcuts
Keyboard shortcuts allow you to use Viso without taking your hands off the keyboard. Using keyboard shortcuts can also help in the prevention of repetitive strain injury. Keyboard shortcuts are only available if the corresponding menu or window is active. Viso has keyboard shortcuts for:
- General functionality
- The Sessions tab
- The Codes tab (Annotation Module)
- Record sessions
- Review sessions
- The menu
When you change the Viso terminology, the shortcut keys remain unchanged. For example, if you change ‘Locations’ into ‘Rooms’ the shortcut key to open the Rooms tab is still Alt+ L.
