What Is QuickJump?

The QuickJump box is a text-entry box for entering navigation commands using keyboard shortcuts. Guidewire places the box at the upper-right corner of each PolicyCenter screen. You set which commands are valid through the QuickJump configuration editor. At least one command must exist (be defined) in order for the QuickJump box to appear in PolicyCenter. (Therefore, to remove the QuickJump box from the PolicyCenter interface, remove all commands from the QuickJump configuration editor.)

You set the keyboard shortcut that activates the QuickJump box in config.xml. The default key is “/” (a forward slash). Therefore, the default action to access the box is Alt+/.

There are three basic types of navigation commands:
