# Keyboard Shortcuts > Review current defaults and customize editor, grid, sidebar, and global actions in Settings. Source: https://dbxio.com/en/docs/keyboard-shortcuts Language: en Relative links resolve against https://dbxio.com/en/docs/keyboard-shortcuts. DBX shortcuts come from one configurable action registry. **Settings → Shortcuts** shows the effective binding for the installed version and current platform, making it authoritative after defaults change or the user customizes a key. `Mod` means `Cmd` on macOS and `Ctrl` on Windows/Linux. ## Common Defaults ### SQL Editor | Default | Action | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Mod+Enter` | Execute the current statement or selected SQL | | `Mod+\` | Execute in a new result tab | | `Shift+Mod+F` | Format SQL | | `Mod+/` | Toggle line comment | | `Mod+S` | Save SQL | | `Tab` | Accept completion | | `Shift+Tab` | Outdent | | `Mod+D` | Duplicate current line | | `Shift+Mod+K` | Delete current line | | `Alt+↑` / `Alt+↓` | Move current line up/down | | `Ctrl+↑` / `Ctrl+↓` (Windows/Linux), `Ctrl+Alt+↑` / `Ctrl+Alt+↓` (macOS) | Scroll the editor one line without moving the cursor or selection | | `Shift+Alt+↑` / `Shift+Alt+↓` | Copy current line up/down | | `Mod+Shift+U` | Toggle selection case (defaults to uppercase first) | | `Shift+Alt+U` / `Shift+Alt+L` | Convert selection to uppercase/lowercase | | `Shift+Alt+C` | Toggle selection naming style (camelCase → PascalCase → snake\_case → SCREAMING\_SNAKE\_CASE → kebab-case) | | `Mod+.` | Toggle code folding | | `Mod+Shift+A` | Send selection to AI | The current registry has no default “execute all SQL” action. Select a range or use the editor's multi-statement execution entry point instead of relying on the old `Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Enter` documentation. ### Grid and Data | Default | Action | | -------- | ----------------------------- | | `F5` | Refresh current data | | `Mod+D` | Copy current row | | `Delete` | Mark current row for deletion | | `Tab` | Toggle transposed view | Standard copy and paste still follow platform conventions. Copy Current Row, Delete Current Row, and Toggle Transpose are DBX-configurable actions. **Focus WHERE condition** has no default shortcut. Assign your preferred binding in **Settings → Shortcuts → Data grid** to focus the WHERE input in the active table data tab. It keeps the current condition and does not execute a query. It does nothing when the WHERE input is unavailable. The grid also has two fixed gestures that are not rebindable: pressing `↓` while the cursor is on the last displayed row appends a row at the end of the result (unlike Add Row, which follows the toolbar insert position), and `Esc` inside a cell editor only cancels the current input — with the grid focused, `Esc` removes a new row that was never filled in, otherwise it reverts the selected cell to its original value. See [Data grid](/en/docs/data-grid). ### Global and Navigation | Default | Action | | ----------------------------- | -------------------------------------- | | `Mod+T` | New query | | `Mod+P` | Quick open | | `Mod+W` | Close current tab | | `Ctrl+Alt+←` / `Ctrl+Alt+→` | Back/forward through tab visit history | | `Shift+Mod+[` / `Shift+Mod+]` | Previous/next tab | | `Mod+1` … `Mod+9` | Switch to a numbered tab | | `Mod+B` | Toggle the sidebar | | `Mod+=` / `Mod+-` / `Mod+0` | Zoom in, zoom out, reset UI zoom | The sidebar also has configurable actions for copy, paste, edit connection, and modifier-based opening in a new tab. ## Quick Open Press `Mod+P` to search connections, databases, schemas, tables, views, and saved SQL in the current workspace. Results come from loaded and searchable objects. For a large connection whose metadata is not loaded yet, expand or refresh the relevant node first. ## Customization and Conflicts 1. Open **Settings → Shortcuts** 2. Choose an action and enter recording mode 3. Press a new key combination, or clear an unwanted binding 4. Resolve conflicts and save DBX detects conflicts within a scope. Editor, grid, search, sidebar, and global actions have separate scopes, but the browser, operating system, input method, or accessibility software may still reserve a key first. The Shortcuts-tab search box also supports **key recording**: click the keyboard icon next to it and press a combination to filter down to the actions bound to it. Actions that share the same chord in another scope are listed as well, so you can hunt conflicts without knowing how the combination is spelled. Keys pressed while recording never run their command; `Esc` exits recording and `Backspace` clears the recorded combination. You can also type the combination as text — both `Ctrl+T` and `Ctrl + T` match. **Combinations the system claims cannot be recorded**: keys such as `Alt+F4`, `Win`, `Ctrl+Alt+Del`, or macOS `⌘Tab` are handled by the operating system or window manager before DBX sees them, so recording yields nothing — that is not a recording failure. Such a combination also never fires even if it is configured by hand; use the text search instead when you need to inspect it. The web build has one more layer: keys the browser reserves (`Ctrl+W` / `Ctrl+Shift+W` / `Ctrl+T` / `Ctrl+N`, or `⌘W` on macOS) are handled by the browser itself and never reach the page. The desktop build has no such restriction — `Ctrl+Shift+W` is the default for Close Window and `Ctrl+W` for Close Tab, and both can be recorded normally. On Windows/Linux, `Ctrl+Alt` may represent AltGr, so DBX matches those combinations conservatively. On macOS, Option+letter can produce transformed characters, and DBX uses physical-key fallback only where safe. ## Related Pages ### [Query Editor](/en/docs/query-editor) Review execution ranges, result tabs, and editor behavior. ### [SQL Quick Actions](/en/docs/sql-quick-actions) Run built-in or custom SQL after selecting a table name, or with the caret on a table identifier. ### [SQL Formatter](/en/docs/sql-formatter) Configure formatting rules and shortcuts for the formatter settings editor.
