Appendix A - Keyboard shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts provide a quick and easy way to use Pathfinder functions without having to take your fingers off the keyboard.

Shortcuts availability

Note that since Pathfinder is included in JIRA via an iframe, shortcuts will be available only when the focus is on the Pathfinder window.
