Day 2 of #Top10VenaTip and today I'd like to show you the copy/paste mappings. If you've been a Vena user for a long time, you may not be familiar with this feature, as this is something fairly new.  What this feature allows you to do is basically add an additional tab with the same mappings very quickly. ...
