Accelerator Keys
Mira AP contains a number of keyboard shortcuts that operate common or frequently used commands. These are known as "accelerators" because they execute the command without having to resort to finding the command in a menu or elsewhere. As with all Windows applications, the available set of accelerators depends on the type of view (window) that has focus.
These accelerators are used when no view window is open (i.e., there is no displayed image, plot, report, editor, etc.).
Main Accelerators

Ctrl+N |

Ctrl+O |

|
Ctrl+R |

These accelerators work from most windows in Mira.
