Note: Keyboard shortcuts were updated in Relativity 9.0 in accordance with cross-browser compatibility. Beginning in Relativity 9.0, you can't overwrite browser shortcuts. Additionally, some shortcuts that worked in the ActiveX viewer supported before Relativity 9.0 may require remapping, as they won't work in the newly supported browsers.
Users with permissions to edit fields and choices can create additional shortcuts using the Keyboard Shortcuts property on the choice.
You can modify the key combinations for system keyboard shortcuts if you have security permission for the Admin Operation called Modify System Keyboard Shortcuts. For more information about this permission see workspace security.

Using keyboard shortcuts
You're a system admin facilitating a document review project for a health care provider involved in litigation related to an information breach, and you need your reviewers to tag as many documents as quickly as possible for the following issue choices:
To equip your reviewers for efficient issue coding, you edit each choice and specify a key combination in the Keyboard Shortcut field.
You then provide each reviewer with a list of the shortcuts and corresponding choices so that they can automatically enter those shortcuts on a coding layout, thus reducing the number of clicks required of them.
By default, standard user actions use system keyboard shortcuts. Keyboard shortcuts are listed in the Keyboard Shortcut Legend along with those used by the browser. You can access the legend by clicking on the Viewer Settings menu in the upper-right of the Review Interface and selecting the Keyboard Shortcut Legend option.
Within the legend, you can sort, filter, Export to Excel, and print. You can print by right-clicking and choosing the browser's print option.
The Keyboard Shortcuts Legend includes the following sortable columns:
Keep in mind the following when working with Relativity’s keyboard shortcuts feature:
