Hot keys are keyboard shortcuts that allow you to quickly access a particular function. Almost every program and operating systems themselves support certain hotkeys.

Yandex.Browser, however, like all other browsers, also has its own set of hotkeys. Our browser has a fairly impressive list of combinations, some of which are recommended for all users to know.

You do not need to remember the entire list of hotkeys, especially since it is quite large. It is enough to learn the most basic combinations that will be useful to you.

On the Internet, you often come across website pages containing incredibly large amounts of text. Some people scroll the page for a very long time in order to find a section of text or a word they are interested in. In this case, you have to waste time and read unnecessary material.

If you are one of these people, then this post will help you improve your web surfing skills. From it you will learn as quickly as possible find information on the site. Be it a word, phrase or even a phrase.

Keys for searching on a website page

To search for a section containing a word or fragment of a word, it is very convenient to use hot keys. They are incredibly helpful in making browsers easier to use. With their use, a seemingly trivial task becomes even simpler.

Keys to search for words on a page: F3 and Ctrl+F

The key combination is standard for all browsers ( Google Chrome, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, IE, Yandex browser, Safari).

In order to find word per page in Mac the following combination should be used: ⌘ + F

After clicking, a search window will appear under the toolbar of your browser, into which you should enter the word or part of a word you need.

As you enter letters, you will be automatically redirected to the first fragment used on the page. The rest will be highlighted in yellow.

Using the arrows in the search menu, you can quickly move to the next or previous result.

The scroll bar will also indicate areas of the page that contain the word entered into the search. Which is also very convenient.

This is how, with the help of a few keys, you can easily find the text of interest on a website page, without reading unnecessary “garbage”.

Greetings, dear readers of the Rabota-Vo.ru blog! I won’t be mistaken if I say that many ordinary users, when sitting at a computer, never use Hotkeys. Most people control their computer by manipulating the mouse. Even many of my friends, to whom I showed some key combinations for speed and convenience of working at the computer, did not immediately understand the point of using them.

The force of habit does not allow many to give up what they are used to. This is how man is made. But, having tried several times to perform this or that operation on the computer using keyboard shortcuts, after a while many begin to use them automatically. I hope that the recommendations listed below for using the keys on the keyboard will be useful to someone and will make it easier to stay at the computer.

Keyboard shortcut.

Hotkeys allow users to optimize their work on the computer and not interrupt the creative process with any nonsense. Using standard keyboard shortcuts, you can quickly execute the necessary commands (undo an action, copy and paste text, take a screenshot, switch the language and even turn off the computer) without being distracted or even looking at the keyboard. By the way, Windows hotkeys operate in almost all applications of this operating system. It doesn't matter whether you're running Windows 7 or Windows XP. Let me give you a simple example of how the undo hotkeys “Ctrl” + “Z” work. To undo the last action, press the left “Ctrl” key and, while holding it, press the English “Z” key. If you want to undo multiple actions, press the "Z" key several times. Moreover, it doesn’t matter what language you have enabled. More often keyboard shortcuts work the same in Russian and English layouts.

Keyboard keys for searching.

It is very convenient to use the search keys “Ctrl” + “F”. They allow you to quickly find a phrase in a document, and work with text is greatly simplified. By the way, search keys can also be used on website pages. When you press "Ctrl" + "F", a small box will appear in the top right in Google Chrome (top left in Opera, bottom in Mazilla) where you can enter the word or phrase you want to search for on the page. If such a word is on the page, it will be highlighted in yellow or orange in your browser. The same line will contain the number of words found on the page, as well as arrows that allow you to quickly move to the next option. Just don't get confused hotkeys search with site search. They only work on the page that is open in your browser.

How to select text using the keyboard.

Hotkey combinations are also used to highlight text. For example, if the text document is very large and you need to select it completely, use mouse cursor not very convenient. It's much easier to press "Ctrl" + "A" and all the text will be selected. To select a piece of text from the cursor to the left or right, press the Shift key and, while holding it, press the ← and → arrows. Each time you press the arrow, the next letter will be highlighted. True, it takes a long time to highlight text this way, but it can be useful. And to select text from the cursor to the beginning or to the end of the line, you can use the combinations “Shift” + “Home” and “Shift” + “End”. In the same way, you can select text from the cursor in entire lines, up or down. To do this, you need to place the cursor in the desired place, press the “Shift” key and, while holding it, use the arrows “” and “↓”. By the way, pressing the opposite arrow removes the selection. To remove a selection, you can click anywhere in the open document. In some applications, you can deselect using the “Ctrl” + “D” keys, but they do not work everywhere. For example, the virtual keyboard does not respond to this particular combination.

How to copy text using the keyboard.

Many are also interested in what keys to use to copy in different applications. To do this, use the combination “Ctrl” + “C”. The keys work the same way in text documents, in graphic editors and in other programs. It is enough to select the desired fragment with the cursor and copy it using the keys. Moreover, these same keyboard keys are used to copy some files. But there is one caveat. If you want to copy text published on a website, you may not be able to. This is the text copy protection that was installed by the resource owner. About, how to copy uncopiable text from such sites, described in more detail in another material.

How to insert text using the keyboard.

To paste text from the clipboard, you can press the hotkeys “Ctrl” + “V”. They also work in different applications. you can use hotkeys paste in text documents or when copying a file. It is especially convenient to use them to insert a large number of identical objects (for example, symbols that you want to use in a document many times).

How to switch the keyboard to English.

We switch the keyboard from Russian to English and vice versa a hundred times a day, without even noticing it. Most often we use for this language switch RU/EN, which is located at the bottom of the screen, on the right, on the taskbar. But it is much more convenient to do this using the keyboard shortcut “Alt” + “Shift”. Over time, you begin to use these keys automatically. You just keep typing on the keyboard and don't think about how to switch to English and back.

How to restart your computer using the keyboard.

There is one more key combination you need to know. If the computer freezes and does not respond to your actions, press the “Ctrl” + “Alt” + “Del” keys simultaneously. A Task Manager window will open, listing all the applications you have running. When you see the “Not working” status opposite any of them, click on the “Cancel task” button.

If the mouse does not work, use the Tab key to select. When the End Task button is highlighted, press Enter. You also need to know what keys You can log out if your mouse is broken. So, to reboot quickly or at all turn off computer, press the Windows key. It is located at the bottom, on both sides of the keyboard, and displays the logo of this operating system. When the main menu window appears, press the "↓" key until the "Shutdown" button is highlighted. Press “Enter”, the standard “Turn off computer” window will appear. Using the “←” and “→” keys, select the “Shutdown” or “Reboot” command and press “Enter”. To cancel this action and return to the system, press "Esc".

Of course, there are other options for keyboard shortcuts to perform various operations on your computer. But in this post I shared the most common ones, which I use all the time myself and recommend to you, my readers. I wish everyone good luck! See you again on the pages of the Rabota-Vo.ru blog!
