You can use the keyboard to perform functions in the JADE development environment.
The keyboard shortcut commands in the editor pane follow standard conventions.
Move a class to a new superclass or copy or move a method to another class by holding down the CTRL or SHIFT key and dragging the class or method to the required class.

Pressing the HOME key on a list box or table moves the display to the first entry that has been loaded in the control.

For details about configuring JADE editor key bindings, see "Maintaining Editor Key Bindings" under "Setting User Preferences", later in this chapter. For details about using the F9 function key to run a unit test, see "Running a Unit Test", in Chapter 4.
Visual Studio uses the F9 key to set breakpoints, by default, and uses the F5 key to run and continue debug execution. JADE uses the F5 key to set breakpoints and the F9 key to run and continue debug execution. Switching between the two development environments can lead to confusion and frustration when using the F5 and F9 keys. You can swap the F9and F5 accelerator key bindings, by checking the Swap F5 (Toggle Breakpoint) and F9 (Execute/Continue) accelerators check box on the Editor Key Bindings sheet on the Preferences dialog. This check box is unchecked by default (that is, false). For details, see "Maintaining Editor Key Bindings", later in this chapter.
