Why Keyboard Shortcuts Matter
When you need a revised call sheet out fast, keyboard shortcuts let you work without hunting for buttons. Learn the ones you use most and you'll move noticeably faster.
Tip: Press '?' anywhere in G-Casper Pro (when not typing in a field) to open the full shortcut reference panel.
Navigation Shortcuts
Jump between the main tabs of any production with Ctrl (Windows) or ⌘ (Mac) plus a number key:

| Go to CS Front | Ctrl+1 | ⌘+1 |
| Go to CS Back | Ctrl+2 | ⌘+2 |
| Go to Days | Ctrl+3 | ⌘+3 |

| Go to Cast | Ctrl+5 | ⌘+5 |
| Go to Breakdown | Ctrl+6 | ⌘+6 |
| Go to Globals | Ctrl+7 | ⌘+7 |
Editing Shortcuts
These shortcuts work when cells or rows are selected in the crew grid or scene schedule:
| Action | Windows | Mac |
|---|---|---|
| Undo | Ctrl+Z | ⌘+Z |
| Redo | Ctrl+Shift+Z | ⌘+Shift+Z |
| Copy selected cells | Ctrl+C | ⌘+C |
| Cut selected cells | Ctrl+X | ⌘+X |
| Paste | Ctrl+V | ⌘+V |
| Clear selected cells | Delete | Delete |
Pro Tips for Faster Work
Beyond shortcuts, these habits will speed up your workflow:
- Right-click any row or cell for a context menu with common actions
- Double-click a cell to edit it immediately
- Set department-level call times to avoid entering individual calls one by one
- Use the floating controls bar at the bottom of CS Front and CS Back to access layout, density, and print settings without leaving the tab
Tip: Shortcuts activate only when you are not typing in a text field. If a shortcut seems unresponsive, click an empty area of the page first to move focus off any active input.
