Management Center - Keyboard Shortcuts

Context

Using MC is easy and intuitive, but why not make it even better and even faster? We always want to make your life easier, so we added another useful functionality - keyboard shortcuts.

This will make navigating around your Menu even quicker.

We will be adding more shortcuts in the future - stay tuned and bookmark this page to stay on top of the new additions!

Essential information

  • Keyboard shortcuts are page specific and can’t be used across different pages
  • It's possible to add custom shortcuts. This means that using any key or combination of keys (that isn't in use yet) is doable
  • When an input is focused, shortcuts are not available. Users can only toggle the list (ctrl/cmd + /) and have a quick overview of all shortcuts available

Reference guide

And here's one more thing to keep handy. We divide shortcuts into:

  • Flag (popup) component (displayed bottom right in the MC) should be a common place for the shortcuts announcement
  • Keyboard shortcut drawer should be a common place for adding the list of shortcuts across the app
