Keyboard Shortcuts for Story Pages

You can use some key combinations (keyboard shortcuts) to move around and to move objects around SAP Analytics Cloud story pages.

On Windows, use the Ctrl key and on Mac use the Command key.

As in other programs, you can also select ranges (using the Shift key with the cursor) or select specific values (using the Ctrl or Command key).

Note

For some countries, the shortcuts might not work if the keyboard layout (key placement) is different. For example, Show Grid ( Ctrl + Alt + G ) may not work with an “English (India)” keyboard layout.
