    Default Keyboard Shortcuts (MAC)

    There may be a thread or page but I can't find it ?
    Don't post a playlist as the songs in a Realbook if the changes aren't from the book.
    If you do transcribe changes from a book put it in the title RB1, RB2, GGB, Sher, etc

    For Mac, they list in the various menus alongside its name;
    On iOS, hold down command key and wait for the key shortcut window to appear (best in portrait as in landscape some are hidden).

    For mac .
    There should be a list somewhere. like ^ = maj 7 , %= repeat pre bar , #= sharp , o = dim
    You get the idea ?
    I can't figure out min7b5
    btw love the new cloud feature. I edit on the mac and it shows up right away on the iPad.
    I just discovered that putting in lyrics is faster on the iPad. I still prefer the Mac for layout chord entry etc.

    --also if there is such a list this thread should be a sticky

    Edit mode
    Hover mouse over the symbols and if there is a key command, it will show as tooltips.
    For min7b5, do you mean ř
    If so, option o (letter o).

    The o just gives a dim . How do you get the line going through?

    Try a lowercase "h".
    Or hold the option key and type "o".

    Scroll to the bottom of a "weird" page and select "Full Site” if on mobile.

    In the selector window at the bottom of the page, I like vB4 style/format.

    Great help with the dim and half-dim symbols. The - and the + are also easy. What about the delta? is there a shortcut for that, rather than the pull down menu?

    Try the Caret “^” symbol as a keyboard shortcut for the “Delta” triangle (Maj7)
