This page lists every shortcut in the HyoNova office. The same list, for the office itself, is in Settings › Controls inside the product. On a Mac, use ⌘ wherever this page says Ctrl.

Shortcuts do not act while you type in a text field — a search box, a message or a form — except Esc and Ctrl + K.
