Every shortcut Cue Canvas ships with.
These are the defaults. You can change any of them in the settings window’s Shortcuts section, which always shows the shortcut you are actually using. See Settings. This page shows what Cue Canvas ships with, so it does not change when you remap something.
Windows shortcuts are listed for when the Windows version arrives. It is not released yet, so nothing below is a list of things Windows can do today.
Overlay
| Action | macOS | Windows |
|---|
| Start / stop annotating | Shift+Cmd+D | Ctrl+Shift+D |
| Toggle click-through | Shift+Cmd+A | Ctrl+Shift+A |
| Show / hide control panel | Shift+Cmd+P | Ctrl+Shift+P |

These work while you are annotating. If clicks are passing through to the app underneath, press Shift+Cmd+A first.

| Arrow | A | A |
| Rectangle | R | R |

| Highlighter | H | H |

While the text tool has a caret open, these bare keys are typed into the annotation instead of switching tool. Hold Cmd (Ctrl on Windows) to switch anyway: Cmd+R for Rectangle, and so on for every row above. Doing so commits the text first. Every other shortcut on this page keeps working with a caret open, Cmd+Q included.
