Thursday Tip: Keyboard Shortcut for Windows

Have you been good this year? If so, Santa just dropped off today's tip. He said the elves were a lot more productive when they were utilizing all of the keyboard shortcuts he dropped off.

First, let's find all of the shortcuts for CorelDRAW (or Corel PHOTO-PAINT). Select Tools | Options (that's Ctrl + J). Then navigate the tree on the left to Workspace | Customization | Commands. Click on the Shortcut Keys tab and then you'll see a View All button in the lower right of the dialog box. This allows you to print all of the shortcut keys or export them to a text file. The nice thing about this is that is allows you to customize the key and then print out the list of your own shortcuts.

While you may spend a lot of your time in CorelDRAW, you spend just as much time in Windows. Bill Gates wants you to have a productive 2009 as well. So he put together a long list of keyboard shortcuts you can use in most versions of Windows. After you get done playing with all of your new toys, see how many of these shortcut keys you can add to your arsenal.
