Keyboard shortcuts

The same list lives in the app, under Shortcuts in your settings, and that copy is the one kept in step with the code. This page is here so you can read it without opening Plnty.

Single letters work whenever you are not typing. Nothing here fires while your cursor is in a prompt box, a text card or a comment.

The two worth learning first

Ctrl K and F. Searching tools by name beats hunting the sidebar once you know what a tool is called, and framing all content is how you find your way back after zooming into a corner of a board that has grown.
