Want to be a little more efficient in creating your albums?

Try utilizing the "hot keys" within FlipAlbum. The following "hot keys" can be very beneficial, especially if you prefer editing in non-Window Frame mode. Holding down the "CTRL" key and one of the following keys will perform the following functions:

" CTRL" + "S" = Save album
This hot key allows you to save your album with absolute links. To finally save your album with relative links for sharing purposes, go to the Window Frame mode and click on File -> Save As... menu. Ensure that the Save as type option says Book, complete (*.opf file + contents) before saving the album.

" CTRL" + "Z" = Undo
This hot key allows you to step back to your last move. The maximum number of Undo’s you can perform is 30.

" CTRL"+ "ALT" + "Z" = Redo
This hot key allows you to step back your last Undo. The maximum number of Redo’s you can perform is 30.

" CTRL" + "N" = New Book
This hot key enables you to open a new blank book.

" CTRL" + "O" = Open Book
This hot key enables you to open an existing album.

" CTRL" + "C" = Copy
After selecting an image on the page, this hot key will enable you to copy the selected image. To select more than one image on a page, hold down the "Shift" key and with your "Shift" key held down, click on each of the image you wish to select. Note that the Select Objects tool† has to be enabled for this hot key to function.

" CTRL" + "V" = Paste
After copying an image, you can use this hot key to paste the image to any desired location.

In addition to the above-mentioned hot keys, try using the following hot keys after enabling the Select Objects tool† and selecting the image(s):

" I" = Get Image Information
" R" = Rotate Image 90 degrees to the right
" L" = Rotate Image 90 degrees to the left

Note that you can select more than one image on one page by holding down the "Shift" key and selecting the images. You can then rotate the selected images simultaneously.

Lastly, don’t forget about these hot keys as well:

" F5" = Refresh
This hot key allows you to refresh your screen when viewing streaming pages.

" F2" = Toggle between Window Frame and non-Window Frame mode
This hot key allows you to quickly switch from Window Frame to non-Window Frame mode and vice versa.

Enjoy!
