Shortcut keys

Yes, there are some shortcuts already available and a facility to change some of them. 

Ctrl+C copies a record for example when invoked in the library display window and you can paste it back into the library - to duplicate it, and edit it - useful if you have multiple chapters to enter from the same book.  To copy a formatted reference the Endnote shortcut is ctrl-K (copy formatted).  Many of these are summarized on a “poster” at Adept’s website.

From the X3 program help, you can search for shortcut for more information. There you can find some of the presets, and instructions to add or change a keyboard shortcut for the word CWYW shortcuts:

  1. Word 2003 : From Word’s Tools>EndNote menu, select Cite While You Write Preferences. (I added some images as attachments – Under tools (see screen1 gif) you can set some of the CWYW tool shortcuts (see screen2 gif)). 

Word 2007 : On the EndNote tab, in the Tools group, click Preferences.

  1. Click the Keyboard tab.

  2. From the list of commands, select the command for which you would like to add (or change) a shortcut.

  3. Under “Press new shortcut key,” enter the new shortcut key combination on the keyboard.

  4. Click Assign to assign the new shortcut.

Follow the same steps to remove an assigned shortcut key, except click Remove instead of Assign.

Click Reset All to remove custom key assignments.
