Extron electronic DMP 64 Cut, Copy, or Paste Functions, Keyboard Navigation, Mouse Navigation

Navigation

There are two methods of navigation around the interface:

• Keyboard • Mouse

One element in the user interface always retains focus. When a new DSP Configurator file is opened, the upper left element (Input #1 Gain) is focused by default.

Keyboard Navigation

All user interface elements, including mix-points, have the ability to receive focus using the tab and arrow keys or using the arrow keys following a single left-click. For additional details (see Keyboard Navigation on page 85).

Mouse Navigation

Left-click.A single click brings focus to a processor block, as well as other interface elements such as tabs, sliders, check boxes. Other left-click actions follow the Windows standard.

Right-click.A single right-click brings up a context menu specific to the processor block right-clicked. Other right-click actions follow the Windows standard.

Double-click.A double-click opens a dialog window from either the focused or unfocused state of an element.

Cut, Copy, or Paste Functions

The user can cut, copy, or paste a processor. The actions can be performed from a:

•Context menu accessed by a right-click of the processor,

•Using the Edit menu,

•Using standard Windows keystrokes:

•<Ctrl+X> = cut

•<Ctrl+C> = copy

•<Ctrl+V> = paste

Multiple elements can be acted upon but the blocks copied must be compatible with the desired paste blocks. A highlighted group of elements can be cut or copied to a clipboard. The clipboard contents can then be pasted, but only succeeds if there is an exact one-to-one relationship between the clipboard contents and the block or blocks pasted.

In the following example, the Mic #1 input signal path is copied to Mic #5. First, click the mouse and drag it across the entire signal path. The selected blocks are highlighted in green. Press <Ctrl+C>, or use the Edit > Copy menu selection to copy the blocks.
