About S7 hot key

Hello guys,
I found all of most programmer always use hotkey to operate step7 program software. But I only use a little hotkey from menu ,for example ctrl+L download or ctrl+d to open diagnoist list.Would you tell me more ?It is useful for me to improve my work efficiency!

Use every hotkey you can find. In fact, I wish Siemens allowed me to set up even more, but using the ones they already have saves a lot of time.

From the menus, you can find all of the hotkey combinations. Learn them all and use them.

Ditto.

On a light note you may end with the following with too many hotkeys

Never use hot keys !!

thank you, i will use it in my work

I have always found the hotkeys in S7 dreadful, random, and inducing of carpel tunnel. I wish they would take the time to allow them to be customized in similar fashion to Omron or AB. Omron is second to none in the category. They have the best Hotkey configuration I have come across not just of automation software, but really any software.
