Editor and preview

Use keyboard shortcuts

Run the command palette, save, headings, bold, and slide insertion from the keyboard.

Review source and generated output side by side. — See the actual locations of Markdown, Preview, and editing controls.

Available shortcuts

Use these while the Markdown pane has focus. Mac uses Command and Option; Windows and Linux use Ctrl and Alt.

Open command palette: ⌘ ⇧ P / Ctrl + Shift + P
Save Deck: ⌘ ⌥ S / Ctrl + Alt + S
Bold: ⌘ B / Ctrl + B
Heading 1: ⌘ ⌥ 1 / Ctrl + Alt + 1
Heading 2: ⌘ ⌥ 2 / Ctrl + Alt + 2

Keyboard shortcuts: ⌘ ⇧ / / Ctrl + Shift + /

Create from the Workspace

In your Account Workspace, press Option + N on Mac or Alt + N on Windows and Linux while focus is outside a text field to open Create. It does not run while a dialog is open or while typing. This shortcut is not assigned in the Editor to protect unsaved work.

When a key does not respond

Marplio does not handle shortcuts during text composition, outside the Editor, or when the browser or operating system reserves the same key. Choose the same action from Commands in the bottom toolbar. Marplio does not disable browser-wide shortcuts.

Change shortcut hints

In Account settings, open Appearance and Editor to show or hide shortcut hints when controls are hovered or keyboard-focused. Touch alone does not open a hint. Turning hints off does not remove the command palette reference or this Help article. Hints are shown by default while signed out.
