Keyboard shortcuts
Each shortcut works on its own page. Many buttons show their key when you point at them. On a Mac use the first column, on Windows the second.

Good to know
- Shortcuts wait while you type in a field, except Save and the chord keys in the editor.
- Some keyboard layouts type accents with ⌥ or Alt and a number. On those, click the chord in the bar instead.
- Esc closes a dialog. In the song picker, Enter adds the songs you ticked.
