Keyboard shortcuts

⌘ is Ctrl on Windows and Linux.

Anywhere

Key	What it does
⌘P	quick open — jump to a file by name
⇧⌘P	the command palette — every command the app has, by name
⌘F	find, in a box over whatever the active side shows; Esc closes it
⇧⌘F	search inside every file of the tree
⌘B	show or hide the side bar
⌘\	split: the active tab beside the other side
⌘W	close the active tab
Esc	close Settings; stop following an agent, or a replay

In quick open and the command palette, ↑ ↓ pick and Enter runs.

The find box narrows what the view shows — the rows of a listing, the lines of a log. In a view that can step through its hits, such as the PDF reader, Enter goes to the next one and ⇧Enter back.

Two sides

The window can show two things side by side. Right-click a tab to split, or press ⌘\; drag the divider between them to share the width. ⌘F and the toolbar belong to whichever side you last clicked.

In the tree

Key	What it does
↑ ↓	walk the rows
→	open the selected folder
←	close it, or step out to its parent
Enter	open what is selected
F2	rename in place; Enter keeps the name, Esc leaves it
⌘C ⌘X ⌘V	copy, cut, paste — across roots and across providers
⌘Z	undo the last copy, move, rename or delete

In a listing and the grid

Key	What it does
↑ ↓	walk the rows, folders included; in the grid ← → too
⇧↑ ⇧↓	extend the selection
PageUp PageDown	a screenful at a time
Home End	first row, last row
→	enter the selected folder (in the list)
←	step out to the parent folder (in the list)
Enter	open what is selected — the same as a double click
⌘A	select everything in the folder
⌘C ⌘X ⌘V	copy, cut, paste — across roots and across providers
⌘Z	undo the last copy, move, rename or delete
⌫ or Delete	delete: a file on this machine to the system's Trash, a cloud object to its root's .trash
Esc	clear the selection

⌘Z works while the tree, a listing or the grid has the focus, and remembers what this session did. See copy, move, rename, delete.

Writing Markdown

Key	What it does
⌘S	save the file
F8 ⇧F8	the next flag, the one before

In a notebook

Key	What it does
⇧Enter or ⌘Enter	run the cell

Dragging

In the tree, a drag moves a file or folder into the folder it is dropped on; holding ⌥ while dropping copies it instead.

In a 3D view

Once the view has focus:

Key	What it does
← → ↑ ↓	rotate
⇧ + arrow	pan
1 3 7	look at the front, the right side, the top
9	look from the opposite side
0	isometric
F	fit the object back into the view
R	reset

The number keys work on the row above the letters and on the numpad alike.

The mouse, and the keys of a PDF, a drawing and a texture, are covered in moving around a view.

Next: dragging things in and around.
