Keyboard navigation

It is possible to navigate through the ImageMaster WorkplaceClient by using the keyboard.

Keyboard shortcuts for the hit list and document menus are not supported in Internet Explorer 11.

Main navigation

  • The main navigation menu is accessible by the shortcut Alt + M.

  • The Tab key is used to reach submenus (Search, Maintenance, Dashboard, and Administration) in the main navigation menu.

  • Menu items that are focused are highlighted by a different background color.

Sliding Panels (search or filter criteria)

  • The Tab key is used to reach menu items.

Hit list

  • When the hit list is empty, the initial focus is on the button for opening the Search panel.

  • When hits are shown, the initial focus is on the Document Type tab.

  • The Tab key is used to reach the document type tabs, hit list entries, and column headers (to change the search order).

  • To scroll the hit list use the Page Up and Page Down keys.

  • The following options are supported for hit list selections:

    • Space key: multiple selection

    • Enter key: single selection

Certain elements in the user interface, like other lists that support multiple selection, may not support this keyboard navigation. However, such lists mainly occur in the AdminClient (e.g. in the users and role administration or in the 3D configuration room).
