Keyboard Shortcuts

Because the Kvery editor is built on Monaco (the VS Code editor engine), it supports the rich keyboard editing you already know, plus Kvery's own run actions.

Editing shortcuts (from Monaco)

These standard editor shortcuts work in Kvery. On macOS use Cmd in place of Ctrl.

ActionShortcut
Command paletteF1
FindCtrl + F
ReplaceCtrl + H
Multi-cursor (add cursor)Alt + click

Move line up / downAlt + /
Copy line up / downShift + Alt + /
Comment lineCtrl + /
Indent / outdentTab / Shift + Tab
Undo / redoCtrl + Z / Ctrl + Y

Autocomplete

Trigger suggestions manually with Ctrl + Space. As you type table and column names, autocomplete offers matches from your schema, plus snippets and Kvery directives.

Running queries

Use the editor's Run action to execute the current query against the selected connection and see its results immediately. You can keep several queries open and switch between them while you work.

tip

If you are editing a query that is already live, run it from a draft so you can test your changes before publishing.
