Reference
Keyboard reference
Every command with its default keys and its command ID. Change keys in Settings › Keys; use the command IDs on the button bar and in your own keymap.
Commands without a default key are marked —. Run them from the menus or the command palette (⇧⌘P), or give them a key.
MacBook keyboards
