Keyboard Shortcuts

ntkDeploy provides a small set of keyboard shortcuts accessible from anywhere in the application. The complete set of bound shortcuts is listed below — exactly as implemented.

Note: Section navigation (sidebar), profile list row selection/edit/clone/delete, deployment wizard step navigation, and audit log export do not currently have keyboard shortcuts bound. Only the five global shortcuts below are active.

Prerequisites

  • ntkDeploy running on Windows — shortcuts use the Windows Ctrl modifier.

Global Shortcuts

These shortcuts are active from any section of the application.

Shortcut Label Action
Ctrl + F Search Opens the global search overlay
Ctrl + N New Creates a new item (context-sensitive — see below)
Ctrl + S Save Saves the current profile version (context-sensitive — see below)
Ctrl + Enter Validate Validates the current profile schema (context-sensitive — see below)
Ctrl + / Shortcuts help Opens the keyboard shortcuts help dialog
Ctrl + Shift + / Shortcuts help Opens the keyboard shortcuts help dialog

Tip: Both Ctrl+/ and Ctrl+Shift+/ open the shortcuts help dialog. On US keyboards Ctrl+Shift+/ is the same physical key combination as Ctrl+?.

Context-Sensitive Behavior

Three shortcuts change their effect depending on which section is currently active.

Ctrl + N — New

Active section Action
Profiles Starts the create-new-profile flow
Device Groups Starts the create-new-device-group flow
Deployment Navigates to the deployment wizard
Dashboard, Policies, Audit Log, Settings Navigates to the Profiles section and starts the create-new-profile flow
Providers No action

Ctrl + S — Save

Active section Action

All other sections No action

Ctrl + Enter — Validate

Shortcuts with No Binding

The following operations are accessible only via mouse/pointer interaction in the current release. No keyboard shortcut is currently bound:

  • Sidebar navigation between sections
  • Profile list: select row, edit, clone, delete
  • Deployment wizard: advance step, go back, confirm deployment
  • Audit log: filter, export
  • Device group management actions
  • Provider management actions
