Keyboard shortcuts (playlist view)

In addition to standard navigation shortcuts, the playlist view supports the following keyboard shortcuts:

Key combination

Action

Ctrl+Enter

Add the selection to the playback queue

Ctrl+F

Open the search bar

F2

Activate inline metadata editing for the current selection

F3

Open the search bar or navigate to the next search result

Shift+F3

Open the search bar or navigate to the previous search result

These shortcuts will only work when the playlist view is focused. They will not work if the relevant key combinations have been assigned to commands on the Keyboard Shortcuts preferences page.

If ‘Open search bar instead of pop-up playlist search when using Ctrl+F or F3’ is disabled in on the Search tab on the Playlist view preferences page, Ctrl+F and F3 will instead open the pop-up playlist search window.

When the search box in the search bar is focused, the following keyboard shortcuts are available:

Key combination

Action

Enter

Play the focused item

Ctrl+Enter

Add the focused item to the playback queue

Up

Navigate to the previous search result

Down
