to various aspects of the TPDesign4 workspace (Button Preview,
Properties, State Manager and Workspace).
All Commands: This category includes all available commands
from all command categories.
• Commands: Once a Category has been selected, this list box is populated with all
commands included in that category. Note that the commands listed
mirror those found in their respective Menu options.

to the selected command.
• Press New Shortcut Key: With a command selected, press the new accelerator key (or key

TPDesign4 context menus (context menus are accessed via a
right-mouse (for example, a right mouse click on any thumb-
