Rebinding

  • Most global shortcuts can be searched and rebound, with conflicts confirmed before reassignment
  • Rebinding replaces all of a command’s defaults with the single new combination
  • Reset one binding or all of them. Changes take effect immediately and persist per installation
  • Escape, tab-index switching, the zoom scroll gesture, Shift+Alt+F, and in-view navigation keys are fixed
  • Shortcut labels adapt to the operating system, and the active UI context decides which command receives a shared binding
  • Result-view shortcuts work in both Table and Tree, and are rebindable in either
