Keyboard

Arrow key focus alternates between the list pane and the preview pane. The active pane determines what the arrow keys do.

Key	Action
`↑` / `↓`	Move selection up / down in the list
`→` / `Enter`	Open selected note in preview (or drill into folder)
`←`	Return focus to list (from preview), or go up a folder
`Page Up` / `Page Down`	Jump 8 items in list; scroll by screen in preview

Global Shortcuts

These work any time focus is not inside a text field.

Key	Action
`/` or `s`	Focus the search bar — start typing immediately
`#`	Focus the tags filter — type `#tagname` to filter live

Key	Action
`e`	Edit the currently selected note
`a`	Open the Add bar
`Delete`	Delete the selected note (with confirmation)
`Backspace`	Navigate back

Key	Action
`l`	Switch to List command
`p`	Move focus to the preview pane
`n`	Focus the notebook/scope selector
`c`	Open calendar
`C`	Switch to Contacts
`T`	Open the terminal pane
`,`	Open Settings
`.`	Toggle extras (frontmatter table + annotation foot)

After typing a title in the Add bar:

Key	Action
`Enter`	Save the note
`Ctrl+Enter`	Save and immediately open in the editor

These work while a note is open in the editor.

Key	Action
`Ctrl+Enter`	Save the note (works in title, tags, and body fields)
`Escape`	Cancel edit — return to preview without saving

Key	Action
`Escape`	The universal cancel. From a text field: blur and park focus on the Menu button. From a modal or inline bar: close it. From the menu: close it. From multi-select: clear selection.

Escape always leaves you somewhere safe — the Menu button — from which you can Tab or arrow-key onward.
