Thanks for @troejgaard and @BLUEFROG I’ve got a nifty sheet of annotations for a document I am working with. I’ve been trying to navigate the set using the ‘command-up/down’ arrow sequence … this doesn’t work for me. Have I misinterpreted the hotkey sequence . When I am in sheet view:
I can navigate by record using the ‘up/down’ arrows - and to the first and last records using ‘command-up/down’. The Go menu indicates the ‘command-up/down’ sequence prior/first and next/last … a minor confusion.
When I am in database view ( for want of a better term ), which is easier to work with. None of the hotkeys work. Is this the way it is, or am I doing something wrong?
For some reason the menu displays the wrong keyboard shortcuts for Go > Next/Previous/First/Last Document/Record. On my machine (Macbook Air, Ventura 13.7.4) these are the actual shortcuts:
I think the explanation is that the real keys are actually:
Previous/Next: Cmd-Page Up/Page Down
First/Last: Cmd-Home/End
But Page Up, Page Down, Home and End don’t exist as physical keys on many newer keyboards (laptop keyboards in particular). Instead you use the function key to input them:
Page Up: Fn-Arrow Up
Page Down: Fn-Arrow Down
Home: Fn-Arrow Left
End: Fn-Arrow Right
I rarely see Page Up/Down represented as symbols. At least I don’t really remember noticing… Upon closer inspection, the symbols used for them are distinct from the symbols used for the arrow keys. But since the symbols are arrows, it can be confusing at first glance.
