DOWN
DOWN is a basic panel command that you can issue from any product panel that contains a scrollable list.
DOWN causes the display to scroll down toward the bottom of the list. The value you specify remains in effect until you perform one of the following actions:
- Change it by using the UP command
- Modify your User Profile
- End your product session
DOWN is the default value assigned to the F8 key.
