+ Key Strokes +
++ Jalview has two distinct modes of keyboard operation - in 'Normal' + mode, single keystrokes (including those shown next to menu items) + provide short cuts to common commands. In 'Cursor' mode (enabled by + F2), some of these are disabled and more complex 'Compound + Keystrokes' can be entered to perform precise navigation, selection + and editing operations. +

The compound commands available in the Cursor mode are + summarised below. Single letter commands can be prefixed by digits + to specify a repetition number, and some more complex commands take + one or more numeric parameters (prefixing the command key and + separated by commas).
+Compound Command | +Mode | +Action (and parameter description) | +
0-9 | +Cursor | +Begin entering a numeric parameter (p) + or repetition number for a cursor movement or edit command. + | +
, | +Cursor | +Separates one or more numeric parameters (e.g. p1,p2) + for a command. + | +
p1,p2 Return |
+ Cursor | +Move cursor to a particular column (p1)
+ and row (p2) in the alignment. + e.g. '5,6<Return>' moves the cursor to the 5th + column in the 6th sequence. |
+
pS | +Cursor | +Jump to the p'th sequence in + the alignment. + | +
pP | +Cursor | +Jump to p'th amino acid in + current sequence. + | +
pC | +Cursor | +Jump to p'th column in the + alignment. + | +
Q | +Cursor | +Marks the top left corner of the selection area | +
M | +Cursor | +Marks the bottom right corner of the selection area | +
[p] Space |
+ Cursor | +Inserts one (or optionally p)
