Introduction

There are several key presses which compliment the standard Windows interface to scroll and reposition through the displayed inspection report. In Windows, a list, or report that exceeds the boundaries of the display will provide scroll bars normally located on the right and bottom of the view. Using these scroll bars requires the use of the mouse which controls the positioning by sliding the "Scroll Box". For further assistance on using scroll bars, please review Help in Windows.

Geomet provides shortcut key presses to control the positioning of the inspection report in the available area on the display.

NOTE: Windows sends all key presses to the Window or Dialog that has "Focus", considered the current topmost active window. For example, if you have Geomet and another program, such as Excel active, the program that has "Focus" will receive all key presses. If you press the <Home> key when the inspection report is not the current "Focused" control, no response is seen.

To illustrate, open a long inspection report and click you mouse in the graphic area. Press <Home> or <End> and the inspection report does not move. Click your mouse in the report area and repeat the key presses and the report will scroll according to your commands.
