CORELDRAW is another design tool. Needless to say, it has powerful functions. It is also crucial to improve work efficiency. To achieve this goal, the application of shortcut keys is the key. In the process of using CORELDRAW, the author has some experience in using shortcut keys, which I would like to share with you.

1. Application of toolbox shortcut keys:

2. Application of menu shortcut keys

Most of the shortcut keys in the menu are WINDOWS standard shortcut keys, such as: save, create, open, print, etc., which will not be described here. There are corresponding representations at the back of the menu.

3. Shortcut key settings

Many times, the shortcut keys that come with CORELDRAW cannot meet our needs, and some commonly used shortcut keys are inconvenient to set, and some are not. Commonly used shortcut keys are easy to operate. We can exchange them through the shortcut key setting function and set some that are not available. The details are as follows:

I would also like to say here that when opening the OPTIONS settings, there are specially designed shortcut keys for us to use. We can use them to open the option settings without clicking TOOLS-OPTIONS. Come open. In this dialog box, CORELDRAW has designed multiple expandable menus, which are easy for people familiar with WINDOWS resource managers to master. Follow these steps: OPTIONS Select the CUSTOMIZE item in the leftmost list, open it, and select KEYBOARD PRESS (keyboard settings) , expand accordingly on the right, and select the option you want to set or modify. Here, the only thing I want to explain is that when the option you want to modify originally has a shortcut key, you must select DELETE CONFLICTS to perform the following operations. After setting , click the "ASSIGN" button and then click the "OK" button to set up successfully.
