Keyboard shortcuts
These are the default shortcuts on macOS and Windows. Where macOS uses ⌘, Windows uses Ctrl, with a few differences that the tables show. Every shortcut can be changed.
Default shortcuts
The keys are shown as caps: ⌘⇧T means holding Command and Shift and pressing T. On macOS, ⌃ is Control, ⌥ is Option and ⇧ is Shift.

Change a shortcut
- Open SettingsKeyboard & accessibility. You can reach it from the Help menu with Keyboard Shortcuts too.
- Choose the shortcut next to the command you want to change.
- Press the new keys. Esc cancels, and Delete clears the shortcut.
- If another command already uses it, Zephium says which, and offers Use here to take it over.
A shortcut has to include Command or Control (on Windows, Ctrl, and not Ctrl+Alt with a letter or number, which many keyboard layouts use to type characters). Shortcuts that belong to the system cannot be used. Reset returns one command to its default, and Restore default shortcuts returns every one.
The launcher has its own recorder in the same place, so that it can work from any app. See the launcher.
