Keyboard shortcuts can be used to issue specific control commands in enaio® webclient. enaio® webclient and enaio® webclient as a desktop application support a large number of common keyboard shortcuts. This section introduces you to a few special shortcuts that apply in certain areas and that go beyond the standard shortcuts.

The following applies if you are using enaio® mobile:

enaio® mobile does not support keyboard shortcuts.

We differentiate in object lists, such as hit lists or filing locations, between marked and focused elements:

Focused elements

A focused element in an object list is highlighted by a frame.
Marked elements

Marked elements in an object list are highlighted in gray. Elements are marked so that actions (such as copying, subscribing, etc.) can be applied to one or more objects. If the user selects an element from an object list, the corresponding information will be displayed in the preview area (e.g., the content of the selected document is shown in the content preview).

When an object list is opened, the first line/tile is marked (line/tile is gray). Pressing the down arrow key sets the focus to the next line/tile, while the first line/tile remains marked.
