3. Use the [F3] key (COPY)–[F6] key (PASTE) to execute the editing function.
Each key has the following function.
• [F3] key (COPY) ........ Copies the selected step(s) to the clipboard.
• [F4] key (DELETE).... Deletes the selected step(s). Subsequent steps will move for-
ward.
• [F5] key (INSERT) ..... Inserts a step with the identical contents at the location of the
currently selected step. Subsequent steps will move back-
ward.
• [F6] key (PASTE) ....... Pastes the contents of the clipboard at the location of the cur-
rently selected step. When you execute this, steps later than
the paste location will be moved backward. If the clipboard is
empty, pressing this key will do nothing.
Hint: When copying/deleting/pasting steps, you can hold down the [SHIFT] key and use the CURSOR
[
π ]/[ † ] keys to select two or more adjacent steps as the edit region.
