Keyboard shortcuts | MedLibro Docs

On a computer, the keyboard does most of what the buttons do. This page lists the keys.

To see the keys in the app, press ?, or select Keyboard shortcuts at the end of the ⋮ menu. You can also type shortcuts in the search.

Everywhere

These keys work on every page when you are signed in.

Key	What it does
`Ctrl` `K`	Opens or closes the search. On a Mac, press `⌘` `K`.
`?`	Opens or closes the list of keys.
`Esc`	Closes a menu, the search or an enlarged image. Some windows close only with their cross.

While you answer

These keys work in a session and in a playlist. In Memorix, all of them work except the arrows.

Key	What it does
`A` to `E`	Ticks or unticks the option with that letter.
`1` to `9`	Ticks or unticks the 1st to the 9th option.
`Space`	Checks your answer.
`←`	Goes to the previous question.
`→`	Goes to the next question.

The digits work on an AZERTY keyboard with or without Shift. The arrows do what the buttons do, so they also follow Next unanswered if you chose it.

In an enlarged image

Key	What it does
`←`	Shows the previous image.
`→`	Shows the next image.
`Esc`	Closes the image.

In the search

Key	What it does
`↑` and `↓`	Move the highlight between the rows.
`Enter`	Opens the highlighted row.
`Tab`	Shows what a year or a module holds.
`Backspace`	Goes up one level, if the field is empty.
`Del`	Removes the highlighted row from Recent, if the field is empty.
`Esc`	Closes the search.

In a note

Key	What it does
`Ctrl` `Enter`	Sends the note. On a Mac, press `⌘` `Enter`.

In Memorix and the Notebook

Key	What it does
`1`, `2`, `3`	Rate a Memorix card, after you check it.
`←` and `→`	Turn the pages of a book in the Notebook.

When a key does nothing

The answer keys do nothing while you type in a field or in a note.
They do nothing while a window or a menu is open.
They ignore a key that you press with Ctrl, so Ctrl C still copies.

Move with Tab

Tab moves between the letters and the buttons. Space or Enter then presses the one that you are on.
