How to move quickly through a deal workspace.

The command palette is the fastest way to move through Reia without leaving the current context. Use it to open panels, documents, Inputs, Statements, search, and workspace actions.

Open commands

Open the command palette from the Command button when it is visible, or from the magnifying-glass button in the sidebar or workspace rail. From the keyboard, use Cmd+K on Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux. The backquote key is also available as a browser-safe fallback.

To try it, open the command palette and search for a visible action such as Open search, Show keyboard shortcuts, Open document picker, Load Layout, Save Layout, or Close active panel. Reia uses searchable action names so you do not need to remember every shortcut.

Common shortcuts

Local shortcuts

Local shortcuts depend on the panel.

In chat, / opens commands, @ opens the file picker, Enter sends, and Shift+Enter adds a new line.

In documents, Cmd+S or Ctrl+S saves, Cmd+B or Ctrl+B bolds, Cmd+I or Ctrl+I italicizes, and Cmd+Backquote or Ctrl+Backquote formats inline code.

In Input tables, arrow keys move between cells, Enter edits or accepts, and Esc cancels.

In the Library table, ArrowUp, ArrowDown, J, or K moves the highlighted row; Enter or Space opens; X selects; Backspace or Delete removes.

Some browser and operating-system shortcuts can conflict. If a shortcut does not work, open Show keyboard shortcuts from Help and use the listed alternative.
