Access Keys
Access keys allow you to use your keyboard to move around a website. The following access keys can be used on this website:
- 0 – Access key list (this page)
- 1 – Home page
- 2 – The Lochy page
- 3 – Fish Gallery page
- 4 – Thirty Pounds Plus page
- 5 – Restoration page
- 6 – Monthly Report page
- 7 – Downloads page
- 8 – Links page
- 9 – Contact page
The method you use will vary according to your operating system and browser software, but there are three main options:
- Press ALT + the access key;
- Press ALT + SHIFT + the access key;
- Press CONTROL + the access key.
If in doubt, check your browser’s ‘Help’ section to see which option will work for you.
Changing the Text Size
You can change the size of the text using the controls on your browser. There are various methods for doing this, which vary according to the software you are using, but the three most common methods are:
- Hold down the CONTROL or COMMAND key and turn the wheel on your mouse;
- Hold down the CONTROL or COMMAND key and press the Plus or Minus keys;
- Go to the options at the top of your screen, and select ‘Tools’ then delve around in ‘Options’ or something similar.
As with most things, there is little consistency between browsers and operating systems, so check your browser’s ‘Help’ section.
Other Information
To go to the top of a page, just hold the CONTROL or COMMAND key and select the HOME key.
Depending on which browser you are using, you may also be able to use the TAB key to move from one highlighted link to the next within a page, and then press the RETURN or ENTER keys to activate the link. Press SHIFT and TAB at the same time to move back through the links.
The contact form should be navigable using the TAB key.
