Keyboard shortcuts
Open the in-app list any time from the keyboard icon at the bottom of the left rail.
Three things to know first
On macOS, Ctrl is ⌘ and Delete is ⌫.
Shortcuts are ignored while you are typing in a field, and while preview is open.
They act on everything you have selected — several objects at once is fine.
