Keyboard shortcuts
A key for everything.
Everything in Nifty works from the keyboard, and the keys follow a simple pattern, so they’re easy to remember. If you prefer the mouse, that works just as well.
Three rules, and you know them all.
A letter acts on the page.
E edits what’s open, N adds something new and F filters the list you’re looking at.
⇧ and a letter makes something.
⇧N starts a note and ⇧T a task, wherever you are in Nifty.
G and a letter takes you somewhere.
G H goes to Today and G L to the Library, and the rest follow the same idea.
When you forget.
Press ? on any page to see every key that works there.
A few favourites.
