Aqua-Soft ForumsHi Guys,
When I was new to Objectbar i found it hard to find the appropriate shortcuts to the menus as the info was everywhere. So i thought I would gather all these shortcuts to one place. it would immensely help people new to OB. (hOPE IT DOES!)
PLEASE DO SHARE YOUR PERSONAL SHORTCUT FOR THE MENUS SO IT WILL HELP PEOPLE DECIDE WHICH SHORTCUT IS THE BEST TO USE.
