Tab Key - allows you to move the cursor forward to the next column or field
on the screen from left to right, or downwards where the options are listed
beneath each other. To move in the reverse direction, hold down the Shift key
while pressing the Tab key on the keyboard. Click here to view the standard
keyboard layout if you are unsure where the Tab key is.
Return or Enter Key - the two names are synonymous, both keys performing
the same function. They can be used in a similar way to the Tab key, moving
the cursor across to the next field. Additionally, they can be used to select a
command button. Firstly you will need to make sure the button is selected by
tab-ing or entering along to it. Selected buttons can be recognised by their
darker (dotted) borders, or what is referred to as Focus. In the following
image, you can see that the Ok button is selected. Pressing Enter or Return
at this stage will 'click' the Ok button and cause the program to respond.
In text boxes, the Enter or Return key can be used to move the cursor to the
beginning of the line below. Click here to view the standard keyboard layout if
you are unsure where the Enter or Return keys are.
Cursor Arrow Keys - in grid-like sections of screen, for example product line
entry displays, you can use the four cursor arrow keys to move left, right, up
and down within the cells. Click here to view the standard keyboard layout if
you are unsure where the Cursor Arrow keys are.
Touch Screen - if you are using Power-Gx in conjunction with a touch screen
monitor, e.g. for Gx EPOS, you can use your finger as a mouse pointer,
pointing to a particular area of the screen to move the cursor around.
