Keyboard shortcuts
The task board can be operated from the keyboard. A shortcut performs the same action as the corresponding interface element — subject to role rights and the status model: if an action is unavailable, the key press does nothing and no request is sent to the server.
How it works
- Layout-independent. Keys are matched by their physical position on the keyboard, so the shortcuts work the same in Russian and English layouts.
- Input fields. While the focus is in an input, a text area or a description/comment editor, single action keys do not fire — the character is simply typed. Exceptions that work in fields too:
Esc,Ctrl+Enterand the arrows in the search box. - Context. The same key can do different things depending on what is open (board, table, card, search box). The top-most context wins; if it has no binding, the global key applies.
- Sequences. Some actions are triggered by two presses in a row (prefix + key), for example
VthenB. If you don't press the second key in time or pressEsc, the waiting mode is reset. Ctrl+Fis not intercepted — the browser's own search works.

Task navigation
Selection moves only over the tasks actually displayed (respecting filters and search). Moving the selection between columns does not change the status of the task.

|---|---|
↑ / ↓ | On the board — cards within a column; in the table — rows |
← / → | On the board — between columns (nearest position) |
Enter | Open the selected task |
Esc | Clear the selection |
In the table, when the last loaded row is reached, pressing ↓ loads the next batch and moves the selection to the first new row.
Task priority
The sequence P then a digit for the selected or opened task:
| Key | Priority |
|---|---|
P then 0 | Clear priority |
P then 1 | Low |
P then 2 | Medium |
P then 3 | High |
A digit outside the 0–3 range does not change the priority and resets the selection mode.
