BIAB, Open the Help menu, choose Index, type shortcut keys and there you go. Also go to PG Music, select Support tab, then choose Videos, there's a video on Shortcut keys.
Thanks for the reply, but that isn't what I was hoping for. I'm aware of the chord shortcuts, but what about keyboard shortcuts for editing and copying, e.g., typing "K" followed by enter copies the last 8 bars to the current position, etc? Having a list of those would be very helpful. Is there one?
The latest Update Build 381 contains the new Full Manual in .pdf format.
Look inside your bb folder for it.
In the all new Manual, hit ctrl-f and type in, "keystroke" to rapidly search thru for all the mentions of Keystrokes, to include a listing all in one place.
But even better, the Keystrokes for shortcuts are now also pretty much all listed "by the function" throughout as well.
Also pay attention to the Menus when you look for a command, may of the Keyboard Shortcuts for functions are listed just to the right of the function description in the menus.

Hi Mike There have been two releases of Build 381 in the past few days. The first, dated 10-March and labelled 'Beta' did not include the manual, the second, released a couple of days later, (but still dated 10-March) is still labelled Build 381, but not Beta, and does include the manual.
Please download from the link again, and reapply the upgrade.
Hope this helps Regards Trevor

you'd think by now i should have learned not to question mac
i thought i had checked everything including the date on the original 381 file which i downloaded and installed on the day it came out!!!
should have just gone ahead and redownloaded before posting
somehow i missed the post that indicated the update of 381 and the removal of the beta tag
all is well now

Question me at every turn, my man, that's one of the methods by which I LEARN new things, just be prepared for logical argument rebuttal unless and until I can be shown something to be otherwise.
This new Manual is hot stuff, put it on your .pdf reader if you have one, paperless office and all that, I'm learning all sorts of stuff about Band in a Box usage right now.
We have each made lots of mistakes, though well-intentioned at all times, so always keep questioning. We are all improving constantly.
This 'beta' update has a history that is not consistent, as I have pointed out. In my opinion, a new or even improved update warrants a new build number.

ah yes pdf history of pdf i keep the pdf manual open when using software and yes having the ability to store them on portable devices for reading away from the computer is great
options i like the advanced search ctrl-shift-F and items under the comment tab on the far right like add sticky note ctrl-6
sometimes a pdf manual is locked this has proved useful in that situation pdf unlock

Video: Enhanced Melodists in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows®!
We've enhanced the Melodists feature included in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows!
Access the Melodist feature by pressing F7 in the program to open the new MultiPicker Library and locate the [Melodist] tab.
You can now generate a melody on any track in the program - very handy! Plus, you select how much of the melody you want generated - specify a range, or apply it to the whole track.
This new panel offers built-in specific support for the Reaper® DAW API allowing direct transfer of Band-in-a-Box® files to/from Reaper® tracks!
When you run the Plugin from Reaper®, there is a panel to set the following options:
-BB Track(s) to send: This allows you to select the Plugin tracks that will be sent Reaper.
-Destination Reaper Track: This lets you select the destination Reaper track to receive media content from the Plugin.
-At Bar: You can select a bar in Reaper where the Plugin tracks should be placed.
-Start Below Selected Track: This allows you to place the Plugin tracks below the destination Reaper track.
-Overwrite Reaper Track: You can overwrite previous content on the destination Reaper track.
-Move to Project Folder: With this option, you can move the Plugin tracks to the Reaper project folder.
-Send Reaper Instructions Enable this option to send the Reaper Instructions instead of rendering audio tracks, which is faster.
-Render Audio & Instructions: Enable this option to generate audio files and the Reaper instructions.
-Send Tracks After Generating: This allows the Plugin to automatically send tracks to Reaper after generating.
-Send Audio for MIDI Track: Enable this option to send rendered audio for MIDI tracks.
-Send RealCharts with Audio: If this option is enabled, Enable this option to send RealCharts with audio.
