How the shortcuts are handled
These are standard client shortcuts. The AngularJS and Blazor Turnkey clients catch the key combinations and execute the named standard command. Use the command names in the table when discussing or diagnosing shortcut behavior.
For example, if Ctrl+S is pressed, the client executes Save; it is not a per-action shortcut that you configure for an individual action.
This page applies to Turnkey web clients only. It does not describe shortcut keys configured for WPF menus. For per-action WPF menu shortcuts and WPF keyboard-focus considerations, see HowTos:Use WPF Menu Shortcut Keys.
