Form & Worksurface Function Keys

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.
