Command Palette

The Command Palette provides quick access to all our features using the shortcut CTRL + K (Cmd + K on Mac) or can be selected in the File List menu. This opens a search menu, making it simple to locate and use any functionality, without having to perform an extensive search through the context menu.

For instance, typing “export” will display all available export options and formats, allowing you to quickly find what you need with just one click or by pressing Enter.
