Organizer keyboard shortcuts
I always provide my students with a list of 10-20 keyboard shortcuts. I can usually see that most are not happy with having yet more stuff to remember. But if you train yourself to use some of these, instead of relying on the mouse all the time, you'll not only reduce the risk of RSI, but you'll also find many repetitive tasks so much safer and faster to execute. Two hands are always better than one.
Operations and their respective Windows/Mac shortcuts are as follows
- Undo last operation: Ctrl/Cmd + Z
