APPX Software Library

Appendix A: GUI Client Keymap

GUI Client Keymap

The GUI Client Keymap is used when APPX is being run as a GUI client on a PC. With the exception of standard data entry, the keyboard is used substantially less in a GUI session because many standard APPX functions are performed by selecting buttons, icons, and other graphical representations on the GUI screens instead of using the traditional function and option keys. The keys and combinations of keys shown in this table, however, can be used interchangeably with their graphical equivalents if desired.
