Keyboard Shortcuts for DCACLab

We have introduces Keyboard Shortcuts for DCACLab so that you can use the online circuit simulator more easily than before.

Keyboard shortcut to flip the components in DCACLab

In order to flip the component you have to click on it. You will get to know that the element is selected when the gear sign appears. Tap F Key to flip the selected component.

Note : If the component is not supposed to flip it will vibrate for an instant.

Keyboard shortcuts for Undo and Redo steps in DCACLab

While working with your circuit you might need to go back or forth the steps. There was a button for undo and redo at the top of the board.

However, For the ease of your experience we have introduced the shortcut keys that is Ctrl + Z for UNDO (Get back to the previous step) and Shift + Ctrl + Z for Redo (Get back to the next step which you came back from).

Note : Once you took certain action after undo you can’t get back to that step again.
