Yeah, that description isn't exactly crystal. I think it's a very handy feature, though.

Imagine you've created four new buttons and each of them now need to be labeled. With this new keystroke, you can edit the label of the first one and then hit F7, which pops you into the label edit window of the next button. This saves having to open, switch to the label window, and then close each button.

In other words, if you wanted to label the four buttons as "A" through "D", once you're in the label edit pane of the first button, literally you could type "A", F7, "B", F7, "C", F7, "D" -- with no other keystrokes or mouse clicks. This also works for other areas of button properties (e.g., IR codes, etc.).

It's not quite up there with sliced bread, but it is a handy time and mouse click saver.
