Fast Navigation

Looking for a shortcut? Below the navigation bar, first click any empty place on the screen. To open the Fast Navigation screen using your keyboard, press Alt and N. Type a command, then press Enter, and eTapestry takes you to the area of that matched that command.

Note: You can only access areas for which you have security rights.

All commands are single compound words and do not include spaces, such as "userdefinedfields." If you include spaces when you type the command, eTapestry removes them for you.

However, when you use search and find commands, the spaces will not be removed. For example, if you type "find john smith", eTapestry searches for "john smith," not "johnsmith."

You can also type the first few letters of a command instead of the full command. For example, if you type "use," eTapestry takes you to the user-defined fields page. If more multiple commands start with the letters you typed, such as myuser, myorg, and mydropbox, and you typed "my" then fast navigation takes you to the first command listed in the table of commands that starts with "my" (in this case "myuser").

Tip: To use fast navigation, your internet browser must allow scripted windows. If you use Internet Explorer and it has block this type of window, a message appears in the URL bar. Click the message and then select Temporarily Allow Scripted Windows. To permanently enable Fast Navigation in Internet Explorer, from your browser's Tools menu, select Internet options, the Security tab, and then Custom level. In the Settings window, locate the Scripting section. Under Allow websites to prompt for information using scripted windows, select Enable and then click OK. Confirm the change and click OK.

Some commands can be used from anywhere in the database. Others can only be used from an existing account (such as "AddGift").

These general commands can be used from any location in the database.
