Main menu

Parent Previous Next

The application's main menu, located at the top of the screen above the status bar and surgery schedule, is the primary way of invoking the majority of the program's features.  A number of menu items can be invoked via keyboard shortcuts.  Menu items with keyboard shortcuts display the shortcut key to the right of the name of the menu item.


A description of each of the items in the main menu follows.

Refresh (F5) - Refresh the display of surgery cases.
