Keyboard Shortcuts

A task pane that lists every SkySuite feature with a configurable keyboard shortcut and lets you assign, enable, disable, or reset them.

When to use it

  • Customizing shortcuts so they don't collide with your existing Excel habits
  • Disabling a shortcut you keep firing accidentally
  • Resetting everything back to SkySuite defaults after experimenting
  • Looking up which key combination triggers a feature you don't use often

How it works

  1. 1
    Open the Keyboard Shortcuts pane from the Productivity Tools group.
  2. 2
    Each row shows a feature name, a key picker, modifier checkboxes (Ctrl, Shift, Alt), and an enable toggle.
  3. 3
    Pick a key and modifiers, or toggle a shortcut off.
  4. 4
    For colored or styled features (Font Color, Fill Color, Cell Style, Border Style, Number Style), click the row's settings icon to configure the swatches/styles that the shortcut cycles through.
  5. 5
    Click Save to persist; Reset to default to restore SkySuite's shipped defaults.
  6. 6
    Common Office shortcuts (Ctrl+S, Ctrl+C, Bold, etc.) are listed in a read-only reference section.

Tips & shortcuts

  • SkySuite shortcuts are handled by the add-in, not Excel's built-in accelerator table, so collisions with Excel built-ins are possible. If a SkySuite shortcut "doesn't fire," check whether an Excel handler is intercepting it first.
  • Disabling a shortcut leaves the assignment visible but stops it from triggering.
  • Number-row Cleaner shortcuts use digit keys (1–9, [ and ]) plus Ctrl+Alt.
  • Your shortcut assignments are saved to your SkySuite settings and follow you across machines.
