The Function Keys within the Recital user interface have specific actions in the screen forms and in the Recital Terminal Developer Development Tools. Each Function Key also has a matching ’alternate key’, which is a combination of the Control key and a letter.

In the Recital Terminal Developer Development Tools, a Key Help Panel appears at the top of the screen, listing the key to use for functions within that Work Surface. Press the [TAB] key to display the Key Help Panel if it is not displayed. The keys and their labels are taken from the Terminal Definition file; section 5 entries 114 to 139.

The caret ^ in the alternate key sequence indicates that the [Ctrl] control key and the key that follows should be pressed simultaneously.
