Quick Reference
This Quick Reference combines the Command Reference and Keyboard
Shortcuts. It provides a list of all commands in ES Designer which can
be accessed via menus, toolbar icons, menu chart, as well as ‘access’
and ‘shortcut’ keys.
Introduction
All commands in ES Designer can be accessed via the various menus, both
‘dropdown’ and ‘popup’, toolbar icons, menu chart (for use with digitizing
tablets), as well as ‘access’ and ‘shortcut’ keys. Many commands can be
accessed by more than one method. The Command Reference lets you see
at a glance which method best suits you. It will also help DG/ML and
Punchant Designer users who have converted to ES Designer to identify
where equivalent commands are located.
Note While the Graphical User Interface (GUI) elements in ES Designer are
organized somewhat differently to DG/ML and Punchant, they pr ovide
exactly the same functionality, and more.
