Do everything from the keyboard

4

Once results appear, you can do everything without the mouse:

  • Up / Down: Move selection up or down in the list. The selected item is highlighted; on larger screens a preview panel may show a snippet for the selected item.

  • Enter: Open or run the selected item. Navigate to that post/screen or execute the command. The Command Bar closes.

  • Escape: Close the Command Bar.

  • Typing: Focus stays in the search field. Keep typing to refine results; use Arrow keys to move in the list without clearing the query.

Example: Ctrl+K, type (e.g. "report"), Arrow Down to the post or command, Enter. You are there without clicking.

In Step 5 we will use suggestions, recent items, and run commands without the menu. Plus keyboard and accessibility across the admin.

In practice

Keyboard Everything — arrow keys, Enter, Escape. No mouse needed. On this page, Navigate and run with the keyboard is covered in detail: what it looks like in the admin, the exact controls it exposes, and how it behaves when you use it day to day. Because navigate and run with the keyboard is part of the keyboard everything tutorial — a guided, step-by-step walk through a real FleekDash workflow — the settings you touch here interact with the rest of the feature; when in doubt, open the feature overview and follow the docs in order.
