Object Compare Window Hotkeys

The following hotkeys helps you operate the object compare window in a fast, convenient way:

F1 Opens the online help manual.

F2 You can quick-edit the currently selected attribute with this. Only possible if just one single attribute line is selected.

F5 This hotkey refreshes the attribute list which is currently in focus from the LDAP server. If you want to update the complete content of the Object Compare window, you have to refresh each list.

ENTER The appropriate attribute value editor is opened and you can edit the attributes value.

SPACE This key changes the display of multi valued attributes. It toggles between the condensed output and the multi-row output for the regarding attribute.

This hotkey is only working if you select just one single row in the list and if this row belongs to an multi valued attribute.

For more information, read the content of the manual topic Displaying Multivalued Attributes.

INSERT In an attribute list, you can create a new attribute with this.

DELETE In an attribute list, you can remove an entire attribute or just the selected array member of an multi valued attribute with this. Be aware that LEX cannot undo this step!

PLUS Adds a new array member to an multi valued attribute. This is only accessible when you are in an attribute list and if the currently selected attribute is multi valued.

MINUS Removes an array member to an multi valued attribute. This is only accessible when you are in an attribute list and if the currently selected attribute is multi valued.

CTRL-A Selects all the elements in the current list.

CTRL-C Copies the currently selected value into the clipboard.

CTRL-D IF you are in an attribute list, then the attribute name (not the value) is copied into the clipboard.

CTRL-V You can paste the clipboard value just into the currently selected attribute. You are asked before if the (maybe existing) old value is to be replaced or if the clipboard value is to be merged with it. This is only possible if you selected only one single attribute!
