Most of Sports Club OS can be used from the keyboard. This page lists the shortcuts it adds, page by page. Where a key works the same on a Mac with Cmd in place of Ctrl, the page says so; elsewhere, use Ctrl.

## Everywhere

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Ctrl+K** (Cmd+K on a Mac) | Puts the cursor in the search box at the top of the page. On a phone it opens the search box. |
| **Down** and **Up**, then **Enter** | In the search box: move through the pages and members found, and open the one highlighted. |
| **Escape** | Clears and closes the search box. Closes the account menu, the side menu on a phone or tablet, and most side panels. |
| **Enter** | In **Help and feedback**: sends your message. **Shift+Enter** starts a new line. **Escape** closes the panel while you are typing in it. |

There is no Ctrl+Z to undo anything, and no Ctrl+S to save. Where a change can be undone, an **Undo** button shows in the message that confirms it.

## The right-click menu

Shifts and slots on the roster, your own bookings on Make booking, saved filters on Members, a tab on the till and a report page's **More** all open the same kind of menu.

| How | What it does |
|---|---|
| Right-click, or the **…** button | Opens the menu. |
| A long press (half a second) on a touch screen | Opens the menu. Moving your finger cancels it. |
| The **Menu** key, or **Shift+F10** | Opens the menu for the item that has keyboard focus. |
| **Down** and **Up**, **Home** and **End** | Move through the menu. Greyed items are skipped and say why they cannot be used. |
| **Enter** | Chooses the item. |
| **Escape** or **Tab** | Closes the menu. |

## Weekly roster

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Ctrl+C** (Cmd+C) | Copies the shift or slot that has focus, or the picked slot: its times, position, note, name and every place. |
| **Ctrl+V** (Cmd+V) | Pastes a new draft copy at the same start time: on the day under the mouse pointer, or else on the day after the last paste, so pressing it again fills the week day by day. |
| **Enter** | On a shift: opens it. On a slot: picks it and shows who could fill it. On a person on a slot: opens their shift. |
| **Up** and **Down** | Move the shift or slot 15 minutes earlier or later. |
| **Shift+Up** and **Shift+Down** | Change only the finish time, by 15 minutes. |
| **Left** and **Right** | Move it to the day before or after. |
| **Delete** or **Backspace** | On a person on a slot: takes them off and leaves the place open. |
| **Escape** | Lets go of the picked slot. |

A move by the arrow keys is saved a moment after you stop pressing them. Copy and paste do nothing while you are typing in a field or have a panel or dialog open, and Ctrl+C copies selected words as usual when there are any. Nothing moves onto or off a day that has passed. See [Build the week's roster](https://sportsclubos.net/help/roster/build-the-week/index.md).

## Make booking

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Up** and **Down** on a court | Choose a time, 15 minutes at a time. **Page Up** and **Page Down** move an hour. |
| **Left** and **Right** on a court | Go to the next or previous court. |
| **Enter** on a court | Places a booking there, not yet saved. |
| **Up** and **Down** on your booking | Move it 15 minutes. **Shift+Up** and **Shift+Down** change only the finish. **Left** and **Right** change the court. |
| **Enter** on your booking | Saves the change, or opens the booking if nothing has changed. |
| **Escape** on your booking | Undoes the change, or takes away a booking not yet saved. |

On a touch screen, press and hold a booking for half a second, then drag it to move it. See [Book a court (members)](https://sportsclubos.net/help/bookings/book-a-court/index.md) and [Change or cancel your booking (members)](https://sportsclubos.net/help/bookings/change-your-booking/index.md).

## The till

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| Any letter or number | Starts a product search, so a barcode scanner works without pressing anything first. |
| **Enter** in the search | Adds the product whose barcode matches, or the only product found. Three or more digits look up a member's card or member number and put the member on the sale. |
| **Down**, **Up** and **Enter** when finding a member | Move through the people found and choose one. |
| **Escape** | One step back at a time: closes a dialog, then the till's menu, then goes back to the products, then clears the search. |
| **0** to **9**, **Backspace**, **Enter** on the PIN screen | Type your PIN, take a digit off, and switch in. |

See [Make a sale and take payment](https://sportsclubos.net/help/pos/sell/index.md) and [Till PINs and switching between staff](https://sportsclubos.net/help/pos/pins/index.md).

## Members

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Enter** on a row's **+** in the Tags column | Opens the box for adding a tag. **Down**, **Up** and **Enter** choose and add one; **Escape** closes it. |
| **Enter** and **Escape** | When naming or renaming a saved filter: save, or cancel. |
| **Escape** | Closes the **Filters** panel. |

## The website editor

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Ctrl+Enter** | Sends your request to the assistant (Control+Enter on a Mac). |
| **Enter** | While typing on the draft page: starts a new paragraph or list item. In a heading, it breaks the line. **Shift+Enter** always breaks the line. |
| **Ctrl+B**, **Ctrl+I** (Cmd on a Mac) | Bold and italic. |
| **Ctrl+K** (Cmd+K) | Turns the selected words into a link. |
| **Backspace** in an empty paragraph | Removes it. |
| **Escape** | Stops typing and puts the words back as they were. |

See [Start a draft and edit the page](https://sportsclubos.net/help/website/edit-the-page/index.md).

## Competitions and the boards

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Right** and **Left** | In a board's preview: the next or previous board. On the turning wallboard: the next or previous screen. |
| **F** | In a board's preview: full screen, and back. |
| **D** | On a wallboard or scoreboard in a browser: light or dark. A TV opened by its own link follows its screen's colours instead. |
| **Space** | On the turning wallboard: pause or carry on. |

The phone scorer has no shortcuts: score by pressing the buttons on screen.

## TVs, displays and the foyer

| Keys | What they do |
|---|---|
| **Right** and **Left** | On a display shown in a browser, and on Today at the club: the next or previous slide. |
| **Space** | On Today at the club: pause or carry on. |

## Elsewhere

- **Functions:** on a function's page, **Escape** goes back to the board, unless you are typing in a field or a panel is open.
- **Reports:** **Enter** on a figure, bar or point in a widget opens the rows behind it. In the AI Report Assistant, **Enter** asks and **Shift+Enter** starts a new line.
- **Classes:** **Enter** on a class opens it; **Escape** closes what was opened last.
