Log App Shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts available when working in the Log app are listed in the following table. Some keystroke combinations only work when the cursor is located in a certain section; the Focus column in the table specifies the section of the tab when that is the case. For more information on the tab, see Working with the Log App.
