Keyboard and controller shortcuts
Navigate presentations without confusing playback with editing.

Global presentation shortcuts
These apply outside text fields, buttons, selectable controls and dialogs. Click a neutral workspace area if focus remains in an editor.
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| Space, Right, Down, Page Down | Next presentation item or section |
| Left, Up, Page Up | Previous presentation item or section |
| B or Escape | Toggle blank output |
| Ctrl+Enter | Toggle Live |
| Ctrl+Right | Next service-plan item |
| Ctrl+Left | Previous service-plan item |
Blank is a toggle: repeating it can restore content. Escape also closes some dialogs, so do not assume it blanks while a dialog is open.
Scripture search focus
In the Scripture search panel, Left/Right navigate chapters and Up/Down step verses. Verse stepping can present content. These panel controls take precedence over general navigation within that panel.
Lyrics editing
Ctrl+S saves to the song library. Undo/redo controls are labelled Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y. Saving differs from Send live. Global presentation shortcuts are suppressed while typing lyrics.
MIDI note mapping
When MIDI is enabled in service-plan controls and the runtime supports Web MIDI, note-on events with nonzero velocity map as follows:
| Note | Action |
|---|---|
| 36 | Previous |
| 38 | Next |
| 40 | Toggle blank |
| 41 | Toggle Live |
| 43 | Previous plan item |
| 45 | Next plan item |
Test the controller before relying on it. If MIDI access is unavailable, use keyboard or supported remote controls.
