While I know data is auto saved I sometimes hit ⌘ + S and it’s annoying to open search pane by error. I believe ⌘ + S for other than saving is confusing. If saving feature is not provided ⌘ + S must do nothing.

Many, many apps use Ctrl / Cmd + S for search. I doubt that this would be removed. This is a much better way to solve your issue: [image] Customizable keyboard shortcuts / hotkeys Any Requests? Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. While it’s gre…

Thanks for your reference, I’m looking forward customizable keyboard shortcuts being implemented. Many, many apps use Ctrl / Cmd + S for search. I had no idea about that at all. Could you please give me some examples?

[image] Filip: Many, many apps use Ctrl / Cmd + S for search. I don’t know about Ctrl + S on Windows, but I don’t think that applies to ⌘ + S on macOS. I can’t find any app on my Macs that uses that combination for searching. So if you have a list of examples, I’d be interested in that too. I…

[image] lph: I don’t know about Ctrl + S on Windows I would have said that generally : CTRL + S : save (if possible in the app) CTRL + F : search As in Windows, Notion, Evernote, VS Code Just so you know, I have no opinion on the application itself (even if deleting keyboard shortcuts is …

[image] lph: I can’t find any app on my Macs that uses that combination for searching. It’s certainly not the standard for Mac - Cmd + F (F for `Find) is the standard. There may be the occasional outlier, but it’s not common.

Yes, CMD+F is pretty standard for all native Apple apps and many other native apps. I think CMD+K is becoming more and more popular as a “general standard” these days, as it is common in many web apps and used by e.g. Slack, Spotify, Thunderbird, Aasna, Discord and many others. But it’s definitely …

Hmm… I always associate Cmd + K with inserting links, but maybe its use is changing. Anyway, not Cmd + S, which should be Save. My own opinion is that it should be left as is - it does nothing in AnyType, and so it’s reasonable that it continues to do nothing. A user can create a custom keyboard …

Well it took me some time to get used to it, but now I am all good with these. But customised shortcut is definitely the way to go.

@takuyahara @lph I guess it might have not caught on on Mac, but Ctrl + F was the standard on Windows before, but a lot of apps I used started using Ctrl + S for search as well (especially if they also have in-page search, or so called find, so they need another shortcut for global search). [ima…

@Filip I appreciate your response but I nonetheless would like to know the examples as a both win/mac user. Like I’m doing now I’m eager to contribute to growing softwares or services but without knowing their current situation/standard I may give wrong advice. Your examples improve my future contri…
