Keyboard Shortcuts in Wise Owl Legal

To facilitate the fastest data entry, a variety of keyboard shortcuts are provided throughout Wise Owl Legal.

As much as possible, we try not to interfere with your default web browser's keyboard shortcuts.  

A printable reference card is also available. TODO: make the reference card.

Guide to Shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts come in two forms: key combinations and key sequences.

Some examples of combinations:

• Ctrl+S - Control and 's' together
• Alt+Shift+R - Alt, Shift and 'r' all together

Some examples of key sequences:

• a, b = 'a' then 'b'
• Ctrl+K, t = Control and 'k' together, then 't'

On Macintosh computers, the Ctrl key is the same as the Command key.

If you are using a tablet device such as an iPad, the keyboard shortcuts work as normal, but you will require a Bluetooth keyboard for them to be practical. (TODO: confirm this actually works)

TODO: include relevant browser shortcuts too for reference
