# Keyboard shortcuts

> The keyboard shortcuts in Reactive Resume: the command bar, Documents, the resume and letter editors, text formatting, the assistant and proposed edits.

This page lists the keyboard shortcuts in Reactive Resume, grouped by where they work.

On a Mac, use <kbd>⌘</kbd> (Command). On Windows and Linux, use <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> wherever this page shows <kbd>⌘</kbd>.
The app's tooltips and buttons show the Mac symbols on every system.

<Note>
  Shortcuts made of a single key, such as <kbd>N</kbd> or <kbd>1</kbd>, don't work while you're typing in a text field,
  so they never get in the way of your writing. Shortcuts with <kbd>⌘</kbd> work everywhere.
</Note>

## Everywhere

| Shortcut | What it does |
| - | - |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>K</kbd> | Open or close the [command bar](/guides/using-the-command-bar). |
| <kbd>Esc</kbd> | Close the command bar. |
| <kbd>↑</kbd> <kbd>↓</kbd>, <kbd>Enter</kbd> | In the command bar, move between rows and run the selected one. |

## Documents, Applications and Settings

| Shortcut | What it does |
| - | - |
| <kbd>N</kbd> | Open the **New document** dialog. |
| <kbd>/</kbd> | Jump to the search box on **Documents**. |
| <kbd>Enter</kbd> | Save a document name while renaming it on its card. |
| <kbd>Esc</kbd> | Cancel renaming a document on its card. |

## Resume editor

| Shortcut | What it does |
| - | - |
| <kbd>1</kbd> | Switch to **Write**. |
| <kbd>2</kbd> | Switch to **Design**. |
| <kbd>3</kbd> | Switch to **Check**. |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>Z</kbd> | Undo your last change. |
| <kbd>⇧</kbd> <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>Z</kbd> | Redo. |
| <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>Y</kbd> | Redo (Windows and Linux). |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>P</kbd> | Download the PDF. This replaces the browser's print dialog; to print, use **Print** in the document menu. |
| <kbd>⇧</kbd> <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>S</kbd> | Open **Share & export** on the **Link** tab. |
| <kbd>⇧</kbd> <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>E</kbd> | Open **Share & export** on the **Download** tab. |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>J</kbd> | Open or close the assistant. |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>0</kbd> | Fit the page to the window. |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>S</kbd> | Nothing to do: a message reminds you that changes are saved automatically. |
| <kbd>Esc</kbd> | Clear the block selected on the page. In **Design**, also stop previewing a template. |
| <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>↑</kbd> / <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>↓</kbd> | With a section or entry title focused in **Write**, move it up or down (use <kbd>Alt</kbd> on Windows and Linux). |

While your cursor is in a text field, <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>Z</kbd> and <kbd>⇧</kbd> <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>Z</kbd> undo and redo
your typing in that field instead of the last change to the resume.

The download and share shortcuts do nothing while you're offline, because they need a connection.

| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>0</kbd> | Fit the page to the window. |
| <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>S</kbd> | Send any unsaved edits right away, with a reminder that changes are saved automatically. |
