Programming Screen Shots: Breaks

Breaks

Basic Breaks Screen Commands:

Use the arrow keys to go between events.
The cursor will wrap-around to the left and right.
Page Up and Page Down will take the cursor up or down one hour at a time.
Home - takes the cursor to the first event of the break line.
End - takes the cursor to just after the last event of the break line.
Ctrl + Home - takes the cursor to the first event of the first line.
Ctrl + End - takes the cursor to the first event of the first line in the last hour.

The blue rectangle shows information about the highlighted event:

The title
Start date
Stop date
Product Code
Storage Drive
Cut Length
EOM Time

The log day is displayed in the lower right-hand corner. Just below that is the system time. Left of the time display is a message telling if the hour is under or over programmed.

Working menus and how they are accessed:

File - Alt + F
Edit - Alt + E
Options - Alt + O
Insert - Alt + I

For help with anything on the toolbar at the top of the screen, click on the corresponding text in the list above.

Hot Keys: a hot key is a short cut.

Once a menu is open, pressing the corresponding hot key is a short cut to getting the job done. This saves many keystrokes versus manipulating the cursor into place over the desired event and pressing the Enter key. The hot key is the letter in each event that is displayed by a different color. For example, under Options, the C is a different color in Calculate Lengths. C is the hot key for this command.
