I'm sure you are familiar with keyboard shortcuts in SAS Studio. Using F3 to run your SAS code has been around forever and I sometimes forget that we even have a run button. But did you know that there are actually many more keyboard shortcuts available in SAS Studio? The shortcuts available are also not just related to the code editor, but also for general navigation around SAS Studio and of course there is a shortcut to see all of the shortcuts (CTRL+F9).
You can also remap and assign additional shortcuts via the Options (1) > Manage keyboard shortcuts (2). Here is my favority funcationality that doesn't have a default keyboard shortcut assigned: Display Syntax Help (without autocomplete). You can search for it or find it under SAS - Coding section. I assigned it the keyboard combination CTRL+ALT+A, hitting that while on any SAS keyword brings up its Syntax Help pop up.
