Keyboard Shortcuts
The main toolbar contains icons for controlling the processor. Each icon's label has one of the letters underlined. Pressing the <Alt> key and the underlined letter will perform the same action as a button press.
In the same way, keyboard shortcuts are available for each menu item. Pressing the <Alt> key and the underlined letter in the menu and sub-menu item will allow quick access to the commands.
Additional shortcut keystrokes called "accelerator keys" are available for selected menu items:
Accelerator keys:
F1 Help
F2 Run
F3 Stop
F4 Processing Settings dialog box
F5 Display Options dialog box

Ctrl+L Play Special - Loop
Other Special Keystrokes:
Pressing the return key or the (+) key in the post-processing mode will cause the analyzer to make a single measurement and then stop (single step). The averaging is not reset between steps.
Pressing the minus key (-) will cause the analyzer to step backwards in the file. The step size used corresponds to the current overlap percent setting.
Time Series plot must have the "focus" for these special keystrokes to function.
The Focus:
If you click the mouse on one of the scrollbars, that control then gains the "focus" and gains keyboard control. What this means is that you can then use the keyboard arrows to adjust its setting up and down. For example, clicking once on the Average control on the toolbar will then allow you to use the up/down arrow keys to adjust the averaging block size. The same is true for each of the scroll bars.
The Average size and Wave File position scrollbar control on the main toolbar as well as the lower status bar values showing FFT size, sampling rate, format and smoothing window values correspond to the channel which has the "focus" (its title bar is highlighted). If in doubt, the channel indicator reading on the lower status bar shows the channel number.
