The preferred instrument for operating the system is the mouse or the
touchpad.
How to Use the Mouse or Touchpad
The windows have active areas where the cursor changes its shape when it
is moved around.
If you press the right mouse button on an active area, a context menu pops
up that lists the actions you can perform on the chosen item. A bold option
in the context menu indicates the default action.
The default action is automatically executed if you double-click on an
active area with the left mouse button.

If you have highlighted an item by clicking once with the left mouse button,
you can also select appropriate actions from the menus of the menu bar on
top of the window frame.
How to Navigate With the Keyboard
There are people who hate mice. They may use the keyboard instead:
• Tab and Shift + Tab move the cursor.
• Shift + F10 opens the context menu.
• To close the active window press Ctrl + F4.
• To switch between open windows press Ctrl + F6.
• To terminate the system run press Alt + F4.
If you type something into a data entry field, terminate your input with
Enter. This causes the software to check the change and react.
