Keyboard shortcuts

Clicking with the mouse is fine — working from the keyboard is much faster. Anyone who has to enter classwork for 28 students easily saves half an hour a school year once they know the shortcuts. In ClassCheck, press ? in any table to see this list right there.

Moving around the table

Key	Action
`←` `→` `↑` `↓`	Move between cells
`Tab`	Next cell
`Shift` + `Tab`	Previous cell
`Enter`	Next cell (same as Tab)

Entering a grade

Key	Action
`Space`	Cycle the value (steps through the possible values)
`+` `~` `-`	Direct entry in +/~/− columns
`*` `+` `.` `-`	Direct entry in */+/./− columns
`1`–`5` or `1`–`6`	Enter the grade directly (depending on the scale)
`A`–`F`	Enter the grade directly (A–F scale)
`J` or `Y`	Set a check mark (Yes/No, attendance)
`N` or `X`	Set a cross (Yes/No, attendance)
`E`	Set “excused” — it does not count toward the average
`Esc` / `Backspace`	Clear the value
Number entry	In percent and points columns: type the number, then `Enter`

Press twice to clear. If you accidentally press 3 in a grade column, press 3 again — the entry is removed. This works in every discrete system.

Actions

Key	Action
`Ctrl` + `Z`	Undo (take back the last entry)
`Ctrl` + click	Select several columns (for example to move them together)
`?`	Show the keyboard-shortcut help
`Right-click`	Add a note to the grade / open the context menu
`Esc` outside a cell	Close the open dialog or menu

Global shortcuts (outside the table)

Key	Action
`/`	Focus the search field (on the dashboard and the class list)
`Ctrl` + `K`	Quick class and subject search (where available)
`Esc`	Close the open dialog

Workflow tips

Classwork for the whole class

Click the first cell of the column, then move down with ↓. For each student press only +, ~, or - — ClassCheck saves at once and does not jump away.

Entering a class test

Click the first cell, type the grade, press Tab or ↓, type the next grade, and so on. A class test for a whole class is in within 30 seconds.

A class test in points

In points columns: type the number (for example 17 or 3.5), then Enter. More than the maximum is allowed and counts as 100%. The cell colors itself from the percentage (green ≥ 80%, yellow ≥ 60%, and so on).

Undoing a slip

Typed the wrong thing? Ctrl+Z undoes the last change — even after it was saved. ClassCheck keeps an undo history per table.

Mobile (phone and tablet)

On mobile devices there are no keyboard shortcuts in the usual sense. Instead:

Tap a cell: cycle the value (same as Space).
Press and hold: context menu with every option (note, clear, excused, and so on).
Two-finger swipe sideways: scroll the columns while the student-name column stays put.
