Confluence Docs 3.0 : Keyboard Shortcuts This page last changed on Dec 02, 2008 by edawson. Confluence provides the following keyboard shortcuts for English users. The letters may change in other languages. Note that 'Alt' is the modifier key for Internet Explorer on Windows (except when using the Rich Text Editor — in that case it's 'Ctrl'). Other browsers have different modifier keys to activate the shortcuts; please see Modifier Keys below. All Screens

### Modifier Keys The modifier key will differ with each operating system and browser. For example, when running Firefox 2 on Windows, you will need to type 'Alt' + 'Shift' + 'E' to add a new page. The following table shows the modifier keys for the various combinations:
Browser | Mac OSX | Windows | UNIX/Linux
--- | --- | --- | ---
Internet Explorer | Ctrl | Alt | n/a
Mozilla Firefox 2 | Ctrl | Alt + Shift | Alt + Shift
Mozilla Firefox 1 | Ctrl | Alt | Alt
Opera | Shift + Esc | Shift + Esc | Shift + Esc
Safari | Ctrl | Ctrl | Ctrl
In the Rich Text Editor, the shortcut key modifier is different from the regular page shortcut key. For example in Safari, the general page shortcut key is 'Ctrl', but when using the Rich Text Editor, the shortcut key is 'Command'. Note: In Internet Explorer, links will only be highlighted by shortcut keys; you will need to press Enter to proceed. Buttons, however, are activated through the shortcut. ##### RELATED TOPICS Take me back to Confluence User Guide
