Keyboard shortcuts

Navigate tabs, open files and settings, run work, and search the command palette from the keyboard.

The tab-cycle binding uses Ctrl on both platforms so it matches the desktop tab convention.

Run the active workflow

The run shortcut submits the visible Convert, Delivery, Analyze, or Batch form. It acts only on the active view, so a configured encode in a background tab is not started accidentally.

Command palette

The command palette searches workspace destinations, open tabs, file actions, every Settings section, Sources, release notes, and Labs controls. Type part of the destination or an associated term such as s3, vmaf, or settings, then press Enter to run the selected command.

Timeline and Frames

The per-frame views in Analyze respond to the keyboard once the chart or frame selector has focus:

ActionKeys

Zoom in or out+ / -, or Cmd/Ctrl+scroll

Timeline and Frames share the selected frame, so stepping in one view moves the other.
