Lists all keyboard shortcuts in Timeflow

Customizing Shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts are customized using Unity's built-in Shortcuts Manager. This includes many additional commands that may be assigned shortcuts as needed.

Note that the sorting order of commands is controlled by the Shortcuts Manager and is not sortable.

Please note that some keyboard mappings are built-in and cannot be found in the Shortcuts Manager. Shortcuts may also vary by context, meaning some work globally, others are only applicable in the Timeflow view, and others may vary by what is selected. The different types of shortcuts are listed below separately.

For more information on customizing, importing, and exporting see Managing Shortcuts
