Accelerator Keys
Mira contains a number of keyboard shortcuts that operate common or frequently used commands. These are known as "accelerators" because they immediately execute a command without having to open one or more menus. The accelerator keys available depend on the type of View window that is top-most and has the keyboard focus.
These accelerators are used when no view window is open (i.e., there is no displayed image, plot, report, editor, etc.).

Ctrl+N |

|
Ctrl+O |

|
Ctrl+R |

These accelerators work from most windows in Mira.
