Keyboard shortcuts


Answer

A keyboard shortcut is a series of keys press on you keyboard that allow you to do something instead of doing a sequence of left or right mouse clicks. You will find that learning certain shortcuts will save you a lot of time.

Keyboard shortcuts will appear in these instructions looking like:   Alt+A, Crt+-Q, Ctrl+Shift+A 

The abbreviation Alt means the Alt key on your keyboard.  

The Ctrl abbreviation means the Control key on you keyboard which may appear on your particular keyboard as some variation of the word control.  

Shift means the Shift key.   

When you see some combination of these you are supposed to hold the keys down simultaneously starting with the left most listed and proceeding to the right.  

For example, Ctrl+Shift+A  means hold the Ctl key down, then the Shift Key then the A key.  You then can release all the keys at once or in any order. 

Where can I find if there is a keyboard shortcut for the thing I want to do?

You can customize ChessBase by assigning a keyboard shortcut to each menu function under Menu File - Customize.
