Appendix A. Keyboard Shortcuts

Macromedia has standardized keyboard shortcuts across many of their products. As described in Chapter 20, you can save and print the keyboard shortcuts using the Export Set as HTML button in the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box (accessible under Edit Keyboard Shortcuts. This appendix lists keyboard shortcuts in the Macromedia Standard keyboard shortcut set for both Macintosh and Windows. The meaning assigned to a keyboard shortcut may vary depending on which Dreamweaver window is active. Some shortcuts may not work on some computers, particularly laptops, which intercept some function keys. If a shortcut does not work on the Macintosh, such as F12 to launch the primary browser, turn off the Hot Function Key option in the Keyboard Control Panel.
