# Keyboard shortcuts

NeuroCards provides shortcuts for its most repeated review actions and for commands inside action menus.

`Cmd` shortcuts use `Ctrl` on Windows and Linux.

## Review sessions

These shortcuts work while studying one deck, a folder, or the mixed review queue.

| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| `Space` | Reveal or hide the answer. |
| `1` | Rate the revealed card **Again**. |
| `2` | Rate the revealed card **Hard**. |
| `3` | Rate the revealed card **Good**. |
| `4` | Rate the revealed card **Easy**. |

The number shortcuts do nothing until the answer is visible, which helps prevent accidental ratings before you check the answer.

## Library edit mode

| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| `Cmd+Z` / `Ctrl+Z` | Undo the latest supported library change. |

Undo is available while **Edit library** or **Edit folder** is active. It is ignored while you are typing in an input, text area, or editable field.

## Deck and folder action menus

These single-letter commands work only while the relevant action menu is open.

### Library item menu

| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| `R` | Rename the deck or folder. |
| `M` | Move the deck or folder. |
| `D` | Open the delete confirmation. |

### Deck page menu

| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| `E` | Edit the deck. |
| `G` | Generate cards with AI, when available. |
| `I` | Import cards. |
| `X` | Export cards. |
| `D` | Open the delete confirmation. |

## Closing menus and overlays

| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| `Escape` | Close the active action menu, popover, drawer, or dialog. |

The exact result depends on which control currently has focus. If overlays are stacked, `Escape` closes the topmost one first.
