Mouse shortcuts
- ⌥-click a file in the sidebar, a link or a reference: open it in the current tab, or the current side of a split view.
- Middle-click a tab: close it.
- Right-click a tab: Close Other Tabs, Show in Split View, or Split Tab.
- Point at the sidebar button: peek at the sidebar. Click it: keep it open or hide it.
- Esc: close a Smart Reference preview.
The standard Mac shortcuts work as usual: ⌘H hides Pagewide, ⌥⌘H hides other apps, ⌘M minimises the window and ⌘Q quits.
Questions
Does Control-Tab work when the page has focus?
Yes. Pagewide catches Control-Tab and Control-Shift-Tab before the page does, so tab switching works whether the focus is in the page, the sidebar or the tab bar.
Can I change a shortcut?
Yes, with macOS. Open System Settings, go to Keyboard, then Keyboard Shortcuts, App Shortcuts, and add Pagewide with the exact menu item name, such as Next Theme.
