Keyboard shortcuts
The table below lists the keyboard shortcuts used when working with the application.
On laptops, some keys are multifunctional. For example, F1-F12, Home, End, PgUp (Page Up), PgDn (Page Down). When you press these keys in the MySpreadsheet application, it is necessary to hold Fn key down simultaneously.
tip
Some keyboard shortcuts or part of the shortcuts used in MySpreadsheet may also be used by the operating system. In this case, the shortcuts in the application will not work. To be able to use them, you should change the conflicting keyboard shortcuts in the operating system settings.
