Customizing Shortcuts

Users can customize keyboard shortcuts through the settings panel:

  2. Search for "Keyboard Shortcuts"
  3. Click on the shortcut you want to change
  4. Press the new key combination
  5. Click "Save" to apply

Custom shortcuts are stored in the user's profile and persist across sessions and devices. If a custom shortcut conflicts with a browser shortcut, the workbench shortcut takes precedence when the application has focus.

To reset all shortcuts to their defaults, navigate to Settings and select "Reset Keyboard Shortcuts."

Accessibility Notes

All keyboard shortcuts are designed to work with screen readers and comply with WCAG 2.1 AA standards:

  • Focus management: Pressing Escape always returns focus to the main content area
  • Skip navigation: Tab key navigation follows a logical order through all interactive elements
  • Landmark regions: Each workbench uses ARIA landmarks (main, nav, aside, footer) for efficient screen reader navigation
  • Announcements: When a shortcut triggers an action, the result is announced via an ARIA live region
  • Visual indicators: All focused elements display a visible focus ring (minimum 2px contrast outline)
  • No timing dependencies: No shortcuts require rapid key sequences; all can be executed at any pace

High Contrast Mode

All workbenches support a high-contrast mode accessible via Ctrl + Shift + H (or Cmd + Shift + H) when activated from the accessibility settings panel. In high-contrast mode, all UI elements use a minimum contrast ratio of 7:1, exceeding WCAG AAA requirements.

Reduced Motion

Users who have enabled "Reduce Motion" in their operating system preferences will see simplified animations and transitions throughout all workbenches. Chart animations, panel transitions, and loading indicators are replaced with instant state changes.
