Tooltips
Placing the mouse pointer over a menu choice or a button shows a tooltip
containing the name of the tool, a keyboard shortcut (if applicable), and a
brief description of the tool.
Some tooltips on the application menu, Quick Access toolbar, and ribbon
are progressive. If you leave the cursor over the menu choice or a button for
another moment, the tooltip may expand to show additional information.
While the tooltip is visible, you can press F1 for context-sensitive help that
provides more information about that tool.
Keytips
Autodesk Navisworks provides accelerator keys, or keytips, to enable you to
use the keyboard, rather than the mouse, to interact with the application
window.
Keytips are provided for the application menu, Quick Access toolbar, and
ribbon. You can still use old style keyboard shortcuts, such as CTRL + N to
open a new file, and CTRL + P to print the current file.
To display keytips, press ALT. The keytips (letters or numbers) are shown on
the screen next to the corresponding command or user interface element.
Press the displayed accelerator key to immediately invoke the desired command
or to show the user interface element. For example, pressing ALT, and then
pressing 1 creates a new file.
