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 memorise this page.
Scanning
Section titled “Scanning”| Action | macOS | Windows |
|---|---|---|
| Run the configured scan | ⌘+Return | Ctrl+Enter |
| Leave the current screen | Esc | Esc |
Selecting
Section titled “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.
Preview
Section titled “Preview”| Action | macOS | Windows |
|---|---|---|
| Open the preview | Space | Space |
| Previous / next file | ← / → | ← / → |
| Select the file shown | Return | Enter |
| Zoom out / in | - / + | - / + |
| Fit to window | 0 | 0 |
| Cycle the versions | O | O |
| Pick a version | 1 2 3 | 1 2 3 |
| Maximize or restore | F | F |
| Close the preview | Esc | Esc |
Comparing two photos
Section titled “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.
| Action | macOS | Windows |
|---|---|---|
| Open or close the curtain | C | C |
| Read side A / side B | A / B | A / B |
| Swap the two copies | X | X |
| Move the divider | ⇧← / ⇧→ | Shift← / Shift→ |
| Divider back to the middle | double-click | double-click |
| Show or hide the histogram | H | H |
Video playback
Section titled “Video playback”The plain arrows move between files, so scrubbing takes a modifier.
| Action | macOS | Windows |
|---|---|---|
| Back / forward 5 seconds | ⌥+← / ⌥+→ | Alt+← / Alt+→ |
| Back / forward 15 seconds | ⌥+⇧+← / ⌥+⇧+→ | Alt+Shift+← / Alt+Shift+→ |
