Mapping Keyboard Shortcut Keys

You can map keyboard shortcut keys in Functional Tester by changing the assignment of a shortcut key to a command. You can change the shortcut key for menu items and toolbar buttons.

To map a keyboard shortcut key:

  1. Click Window > Preferences, expand Workbench, and click Keys.

The Keys preference page appears.

  1. On the Keyboard Shortcuts tab, in the Command section, take the following steps:

    1. In the Category list, select the type of menu command for the shortcut key you want to change. For example, Script.
  1. In the Key Sequence section, take the following steps:

    1. In the Name field, press the keys you want to assign to menu item. For example, Shift+Alt+F12.

Tip: To add keys to your key sequence, click the Insert Special Key arrow at the far right end of the Name field, and select a key from the shortcut menu. You can select Backspace, Tab, and Shift+Tab. For example, you can create a key sequence of F12, Backspace, Tab.

  1. Click Add.

  2. Click OK.

Note: The new keyboard shortcut key does not take effect immediately for the menu item. After you close the Preferences dialog box, the change will take effect.
