[ NetBeans IDE ] Is there a shortcut key for 'Replace instance'

I am new to Netbeans, having moved over from Delphi and love the experience so far. I am used to using shortcuts to improve the speed of coding. 

When I want to replace a number of instances I use the Ctrl-H to bring up the dialogue and then tab through entering the source & destination.

However I haven’t discovered the shortcut keys to trigger the ‘Replace’ instance and ‘Next’ buttons in the dialog so I can quickly step through without needing the mouse.

I have found the Shortcuts sheets and they are not mentioned on it.

Do these exist and if so what are they?

Thanks

Thanks for that information. It has resolved my frustration. Not sure why I didn’t spot the Tooltip indicating this. I will have to ensure that I check for tooltips in the future!

And for completeness, F3 skips the next occurrence if that instance is not to be replaced.

Hello. After you press Ctrl-H, you can press ENTER for replace and
Shift-ENTER for replace all when your cursor in bottom textArea. And
ENTER or Shift-ENTER when in upper textArea.
