**Check a whole batch without reaching for the mouse: one key confirms a document and opens the next, and a few more move between pages, start new documents and fix values.**

Press `F1` (or `?`) in any CapturePoint window to see the shortcuts that work there, on one sheet. Press `F1` or `Esc` to close it.

## Checking documents

| Press | To |
| --- | --- |
| `Ctrl`+`Enter` | **Confirm & next**: confirm the whole document and open the next one. If it's already confirmed, the button says **Next** and the key just moves on. Works from anywhere on the screen, even while you're typing in a field. |
| `Ctrl`+`B` | Start a new document at the page you're on. On the first page of a document, it joins that document to the one before it instead. |
| `R` | **Turn page** a quarter turn. Click the page first. |
| `F6` or `Shift`+`F6` | Go to the next or previous thing to check on this document, as clicking it does. Works from a field too. |
| `Ctrl`+`Z` | Undo your last change, if it was a split, join or removed page. Right after **Confirm & next**, it goes **Back** to the document you just confirmed. It only ever undoes the very last thing: once that can't be undone, or after one press, it does nothing. In a box you're typing in, it undoes your typing as usual. |

> **NOTE:** Started a new document in the wrong place? Press `Ctrl`+`Z` straight away.

## Typing values

| Press | To |
| --- | --- |
| `Enter` | Save what you typed and go to the next field. In a box with more than one line, such as an address, `Enter` starts a new line instead. |
| `Esc` | Put a field, or a line-items cell, back the way it was before you typed. |
| `Enter` or `↓` in a line-items cell | Save the cell and go to the one below it. |
| `Shift`+`Enter` or `↑` in a line-items cell | Save the cell and go to the one above it. |
| `Alt`+`↑` or `Alt`+`↓` | Move a field up or down the list, with its drag handle selected. |

## Moving around

| Press | To |
| --- | --- |
| `Ctrl`+`Page Down` | Next document. In **Needs review** and **Teach** it's **Skip**: the next document waiting there. |
| `Ctrl`+`Page Up` | Previous document. |
| `Page Down` or `Page Up` | Next or previous page. |
| `Ctrl`+`F` | **Find** words on this page. In the find box, `Enter` goes to the next match and `Shift`+`Enter` to the previous one. `Esc` closes the find box. |
| `Ctrl`+`Shift`+`F` | **Search documents**: every document, not just this page. |
| `Ctrl`+`=` or `Ctrl`+`-` | Zoom in or out. You can also hold `Ctrl` and turn the mouse wheel over the page. |
| `Ctrl`+`0` | Fit the whole page in view. |
| `Ctrl`+`C` | Copy the words you selected on the page. |

> **NOTE:** `Page Down`, `Page Up`, `Ctrl`+`B`, `R` and the zoom keys wait while you're typing in a box. Click the page or the documents list first.

## Everywhere

| Press | To |
| --- | --- |
| `F1` or `?` | Show the shortcut sheet. `?` works when you're not typing in a box. |
| `Ctrl`+`,` | Open **Settings**. |
| `Esc` | Close a window or a menu. |
| `F2` | Rename a job: on its card in **Scan jobs**, or in the job switcher. |
| `Delete` | Delete a job: on its card in **Scan jobs**. CapturePoint asks before it deletes anything. |
| `F11` | Turn full screen on or off. |
| `Ctrl`+`M` | Minimize the window. |
| `Ctrl`+`W` | Close the window you're in. Closing the main window closes CapturePoint. |

## In a window you moved

You can move the page, the fields or the line items into a window of their own with **Move to another window**, for example onto a second screen. There:

- Every moved window takes `Ctrl`+`Enter`, `Page Down`, `Page Up`, `Ctrl`+`Page Down` and `Ctrl`+`Page Up`.
- The page window also takes `Ctrl`+`B`, `Ctrl`+`F`, the zoom keys (or the mouse wheel on its own), `Ctrl`+`0` and `Ctrl`+`C`.
- The fields and line-items windows take the typing keys above.
- Every moved window also takes `F1` (or `?`), which shows the keys that work in that window, and `Ctrl`+`Z`.
- The page window's find box takes `Enter` and `Shift`+`Enter` too.
- The fields window takes `F6` and `Shift`+`F6`; the line-items window takes `↓` and `↑` in a cell.

## A shortcut didn't work?

Click once on the page or the documents list, so CapturePoint has the keyboard rather than a box you were typing in, and try again. Still stuck? Contact Ademero support with the key you pressed, which window you were in, and your CapturePoint version from **Settings › Updates**.
