Do you miss Excel keyboard shortcuts? Bionic just added a couple new shortcuts to help you move around your media plan faster, without using your mouse.

Mousing Around Slows You Down

When media planning, switching between your mouse and keyboard slows you down.

It’s annoying to use your mouse to select a field, then move your hand to your keyboard to type, then have to move your hand back to the mouse to go to the next field, then back to keyboard, then back to mouse, …  There must be a faster way to navigate, right?

Move Faster with Keyboard Shortcuts

Here at Bionic, we’re focused on faster media planning.

We just added new keyboard shortcuts that enable you to move around your media plan without using your mouse.

As always, you move horizontally with your tab keys:

  • Tab – Move to the right.

  • Shift + Tab – Move to the left.

The new keyboard shortcuts enable you to move up and down with your enter key, just as you do with Excel:

  • Enter – Move down.

  • Shift + Enter – Move up.

Watch the video at the top of the page to see a live demo of these keyboard shortcuts in action.
