## When shortcuts apply

Shortcuts do not replace typing inside a text field. Edit-only tools require **Edit mode**. Press **?** to open the current shortcut sheet in Court. On a touch screen, use the labeled controls instead.

For precision on the timeline, click a timeline lane before using timeline-specific keys. **Escape** leaves a temporary tool or clears the selection.
