- <h1>Selecting by Structure</h1>
-
- <p>The structure view is especially convenient for quickly selecting large
- elements or groups of elements within a document.</p>
-
- <p class="ProcedureCaption">To select an element:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>There are three ways to select a large element like a complex table or
- a long list with a single click: Click the blue label that represents the
- element, click the name of any of its attributes, or click the blue
- vertical line associated with that element.</li>
- </ul>
-
- <p class="ProcedureCaption">To select a text character or text string within
- a structure:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>Click a text character in Structure view to select only that character.
- To select a text string, click and drag across the text.</li>
- </ul>
-
- <p class="ProcedureCaption">To select an attribute value:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>In Structure view, attribute values that can be edited from the
- keyboard are represented in bold text. Click and drag across the
- attribute value to select it. You cannot extend this type of text
- selection outside the attribute value.</li>
- </ul>
-
- <p class="ProcedureCaption">To select structure elements using the
- keyboard:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>Press the <kbd>F2</kbd> key to select the parent element
- in the document structure.
- Press the key several times to select containers (and everything in them)
- up the structure towards the root.
- <p></p>
- </li>
- <li>Press <kbd>Ctrl -</kbd> (minus key) to select a child element.
- <p></p>
- </li>
- <li>Press <kbd>Ctrl k</kbd> to select the next element at the same level,
- or at the level of the parent element if there is no next or previous
- child of the current level.
- <p></p>
- </li>
- <li>Press <kbd>Ctrl j</kbd> to select the previous element at the same
- level, or at the level of the parent element if there is no previous
