In the LPEX command line type "?action", "?query", "?lpex" or "?seu" (in the full version of WDSC) and you are taken to the appropriate help page. Note on WDSC Lite V6 typing "?seu" brought up nothing.

Remap keyboard shortcuts

I remapped the LPEX edit view shortcuts from Ctl-F6 to cycle forward and Ctl-Shift-F7 to cycle forward to Ctl-Tab and Ctl-Shift-Tab, respectivly.

To remap these keys, since they are not part of the LPEX actions you have to set them up in your preferences.

1. Window → Preferences → Workbench → Keys.

LPEX command line

Search for the action of a keyboard shortcut.

1. Goto into the command line by pressing Esc (if not already there).
2. key (without quotes) "query keyAction.X-Y" where X is the keyboard shortcut in the form of a=Alt,c=Ctl or s=Shift and Y is any keyboard key.
   • Example, "query keyAction.f4" reports back in default situations "showSourcePromptView".

Search for the keyboard shortcut of an action.

1. Goto into the command line by pressing Esc (if not already there).
2. key (without quotes) "query actionKey.ACTION" where ACTION is the LPEX editor action.
   • Example, "query keyAction.showSourcePromptView" reports back in default situations "f4.t".

In the LPEX command line type "?action", "?query", "?lpex" or "?seu" (in the full version of WDSC) and you are taken to the appropriate help page. Note on WDSC Lite V6 typing "?seu" brought up nothing.
