Custom keyboard shortcuts

Remap existing Revu shortcuts to match similar functions in other programs you use, or add new shortcuts to create your own personal list of frequently used commands.

  1. In Revu, go to RevuKeyboard Shortcuts.

  2. In the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog, select the tool or command you want to shortcut, replace the keystroke in the Shortcut field, and select Add.
    To use a shortcut already assigned to another tool, select Reassign.

All shortcuts listed in the Revu menu system are automatically updated once a new shortcut has been assigned.

Modifier keys

The Alt, Shift, Ctrl, and spacebar keys aren't limited to keyboard shortcuts. They can also modify the way your mouse interacts with Revu. Some examples include:

  • Hold Ctrl to toggle the mouse wheel between zoom and pan.

  • Hold the spacebar to pan in the document without deselecting the markup you're creating or editing. Release the spacebar to return to your markup.

  • Markups snap to 15-degree increments when rotated using the top control point. Hold Shift while rotating a markup to release that snap and allow rotations in 1-degree increments.

  • Hold Shift and click on the caption of a Measurement markup to move the caption separately from the markup.

  • CtrlShiftclick a markup to copy it and move the copy in a straight line.

  • Hold Shift while using the Line, Arrow, Polyline, Polygon, or Measurement tools to draw a straight horizontal, vertical, or 45-degree line.

  • Hold Shift while using the Pen or Highlight tools to draw straight lines horizontally or vertically.
