Rests in Finale

All this time I’ve been using Finale, I’ve been going to the simple entry rest palette every time I needed to enter a rest. I finally (as opposed to Finale) found that all I have to do is hit the 0 (zero) on the numeric keypad to enter a single rest of the same duration as the current note. Do you know how much easier that is? Do you know how much time I’ve lost over the last two years moving the mouse over to the rest palette to grab a rest every time I needed one?
