Each tab holds certain information and features which is the general hub for most every menu you’d want to access. On your left, you will see the specific data points you are working with (students, schools, vehicles, stops, routes). Whereas on the right you’ll see a map overview of these data points you’re working with. In the top right corner, you will see a personal icon that appears on every page which provides access to settings, among other things. The school year banner indicated your current selected school session, you can also shift to other sessions by clicking it. You will see that the layout of every tab looks similar to the student tab. Generally speaking, each tab is equipped with some filters, the data points, the map visualization, and menu bar which allows you to work with the data in ways relevant to the tab you’re on. # Controls and Shortcuts EZRouting supports keyboard shortcuts to enable certain controls which are summarized in the following table. | Action | Windows | macOS | | ------ | ------ | ------ | | Open a link in new tab | Ctrl + Click a link | ⌘ + Click a link | | Reload the current page | F5 or Ctrl + r | ⌘ + Shift + r | | Reload the current page, ignoring cached content | Shift + F5 or Ctrl + Shift + r | ⌘ + Shift + r | | Stop the page loading | Esc | Esc | | Turn full-screen mode on or off | F11 | ⌘ + Ctrl + f | | Make everything on the page bigger | Ctrl and + | ⌘ and + | | Make everything on the page bigger | Ctrl + Scroll your mousewheel up | ------ | | Make everything on the page smaller | Ctrl and - | ⌘ and - | | Make everything on the page smaller | Ctrl + Scroll your mousewheel down | ------ | | Return everything on the page to default size | Ctrl + 0 | ⌘ and 0 | # System Information For the best performance with EZRouting, use the latest version of one of these browsers: * Google Chrome **(Recommend)** * Mozilla Firefox
