872 PointsIs it possible to use left click to access "copy" and "cut" options in Workspace, as opposed to using keyboard commands?
I don't know command shortcuts, and I want to edit my code using the left click to access "copy" and "cut."
Does Workspace only accept keyboard shortcuts? If so, how may I learn them?

In the long run they will save you such a long time and mean that your hands won't even have to leave the keyboard while you are coding!
OS X Shortcuts
Copy: Command + C
Paste: Command + V
Cut: Command + X
Windows Shortcuts
Copy: Ctrl + C
Paste: Ctrl + V
Cut: Ctrl + X
These are just basic shortcuts and there are certainly a good few more useful ones to learn but at the moment you shouldn't really need any more.
