Keyboard Shortcuts
solyto has a keyboard shortcut system (KeyManager) for common actions across the app. Shortcuts are handled globally, and most also work with a helper key like Ctrl for specific actions.
Global shortcuts
Section titled “Global shortcuts”| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
Enter | Confirm / create / quick-add (when not in an input field) |
Escape | Cancel / close the current dialog |
Ctrl+S | Save the current note |
Ctrl+F | Focus the search bar (libraries, contacts) |
How shortcuts work

EnterandEscapeare the two most common keys — used in modals (“Press Enter to Confirm, Escape to Cancel”), todo quick-create, dev request comments, wealth fields, and more- Helper keys (
Ctrl,Shift,Alt) can be combined with character keys for actions like save (Ctrl+S) and search (Ctrl+F) - Shortcuts don’t fire while you’re typing in an input field, textarea, or select
