About Keyboard Shortcuts
Several of the functions and options in ReCycle can be controlled from the computer keyboard. In the tables below, we use the following nomenclature:
•
[Command]/[Ctrl]-[O] means “hold down the Command/Apple key if you are using a Macintosh, or the Control key if you are using a PC, and press the O key”.
•
[Option]/[Alt]-[O] means “hold down the Option/Apple key if you are using a Macintosh, or the Alt key if you are using a PC, and press the O key”.
•
[Num] means the numeric keypad to the right of the regular computer keyboard (if you have one).
