Keyboard Shortcuts

MyCompanyDesk keeps its set of keyboard shortcuts deliberately small. The shortcuts below are the ones that work today.

Search palette

ShortcutAction
Cmd+K (Mac) / Ctrl+K (Windows/Linux)Open or close the search palette

The search palette is the fastest way to move around the app:

  • Type at least two characters to search your customers, invoices, expenses, quotes, tasks, recurring invoices, recurring expenses, catalog items, and inbox threads (plus projects, contracts, and properties when those features are enabled).
  • Settings are searchable too: type something like "VAT" or "reminders" to jump straight to the matching settings card.
  • Quick actions let you jump to any section or start a new invoice, quote, expense, or customer.
  • Filter chips under the search box narrow results to a single type.

Inside the palette:

ShortcutAction
Up / DownMove through the results
EnterOpen the highlighted result
EscClose the palette

Escape

Esc steps back one level at a time:

  • While typing in a field, it removes focus from that field.
  • With a dialog open, it closes the dialog.
  • On a detail page, it takes you back to the list (the same as the back button).

Site builder

While editing your website in the site builder:

ShortcutAction
Cmd+Z / Ctrl+ZUndo
Cmd+Shift+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z or Ctrl+YRedo

While a text field is focused, undo and redo apply to the text you are typing. Click outside the field first to undo a whole editing step.

Forms

Standard browser keys work everywhere: Tab and Shift+Tab move between fields, and Enter submits most forms.
