Rebinding

In Settings ▸ Shortcuts, click a binding and press the keys you want.

  • If the combination is already used by another action, Compose tells you which one rather than silently taking it over.
  • Any action can be left unbound.
  • Reset all shortcuts restores every default at once.

Editing text

Inside text fields, the usual editing keys work as they do everywhere — including Ctrl C, Ctrl V and Ctrl X. Del deletes a character rather than the block when the cursor is in a text field.
