Keyboard shortcuts

QueryDen is keyboard-first. The defaults below are wired in src/App.tsx (global) and the per-feature stores. Bindings can be remapped per feature in Settings → Keymap.

Global

Ctrl+S	Save current query

Keymap presets

The default “DataGrip” preset only lists bindings the app actually wires. DataGrip-flavored shortcuts whose handlers don’t exist yet (global search, in-app console, go-to-definition keybinding, rename, structure view, tab cycling, local/clipboard history) are intentionally omitted — they’ll come back as each feature lands. Previously issue #11 tracked the fact that the preset advertised these as available when pressing them did nothing.

Shortcuts that conflict with operating system behavior (such as Ctrl+W closing the window, Ctrl+\ sending SIGQUIT on Linux, or F4 being captured by macOS) are avoided. The keymap uses Ctrl+Shift+E for the Database Explorer to prevent these conflicts.

Customizing

Open Settings → Keymap to remap any per-feature binding. The keymap is stored encrypted alongside your connections, so it follows your master password — not your operating system’s preferences.
