Keyboard Shortcuts
Press ? anywhere outside a text field to open Kanera's shortcut sheet. The sheet adapts to the current screen: board shortcuts appear on a board, and card shortcuts appear while a card is open.
On macOS, Command replaces Ctrl. Single-letter shortcuts pause while you are typing in an input, text area, select, or editor.
Use Search shortcuts at the top of the sheet to filter actions by name or key without leaving the dialog.
