Keyboard shortcuts

DuoBolt is meant to be driven from the keyboard. A scan of two hundred groups is a lot of clicking otherwise.

Where a shortcut uses ⌘ on macOS, it uses Ctrl on Windows. Every button that has a shortcut shows it in its tooltip, so you do not have to memorize this page.

Sections

Action	macOS	Windows
Dashboard	`⌘`+`1`	`Ctrl`+`1`
Duplicates	`⌘`+`2`	`Ctrl`+`2`
Similars	`⌘`+`3`	`Ctrl`+`3`
Sync Folders	`⌘`+`4`	`Ctrl`+`4`
Settings	`⌘`+`5`	`Ctrl`+`5`
Show or hide the inspector, in Similars and Sync Folders	`⌥`+`⌘`+`I`	`Ctrl`+`Alt`+`I`

Scanning

Action	macOS	Windows
Run the configured scan	`⌘`+`Return`	`Ctrl`+`Enter`
Leave the current screen	`Esc`	`Esc`

Selecting

Action	macOS	Windows
Open Review Selection	`⌘`+`Return`	`Ctrl`+`Enter`
Clear the selection	`⇧`+`⌘`+`A`	`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`A`
Show selected groups only	`G`	`G`
Previous / next selected item	`⌘`+`←` / `⌘`+`→`	`Ctrl`+`←` / `Ctrl`+`→`
AI Curation: select the group’s copies	`S`	`S`
Keep by my rules, everywhere visible	`⌘`+`R`	`Ctrl`+`R`
Keep Newest / Keep Oldest, everywhere	`⌘`+`E` / `⌘`+`L`	`Ctrl`+`E` / `Ctrl`+`L`
The same, in the group you are on	`⇧`+`⌘`+`E` / `⇧`+`⌘`+`L`	`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`E` / `Ctrl`+`Shift`+`L`

Adding ⇧ narrows a keep rule to the group you are on — the same command, the scope control’s second segment reached from the keyboard. Keep by my rules has no such twin: narrowing your own order to one group is what its right-click menu is for.

Comparing two photos

The compare curtain, in the Similars preview. With it open, the arrows and the chevrons walk the chosen side through the group instead of the carousel.

Video playback

The plain arrows move between files, so scrubbing takes a modifier.

Back / forward 15 seconds	`⌥`+`⇧`+`←` / `⌥`+`⇧`+`→`	`Alt`+`Shift`+`←` / `Alt`+`Shift`+`→`
