Keyboard shortcuts

ARTGTO has a small set of global shortcuts. They work anywhere in the app, so you can save, export, or jump between screens without reaching for the mouse.

Reference

Shortcut	Action	Details
`Ctrl+N`	`New spot`	Clears the board and the current solve so you can set up a fresh spot.
`Ctrl+S`	`Save Solution as .art…`	Saves the finished solve as an `.art` file. See Saving and opening solutions.
`Ctrl+E`	`Export solution…`	Exports for the viewer / companion app. Requires a license.
`Ctrl+J`	Open the `Jobs` queue	Jumps to the `Queue` view of the `Jobs` screen.
`Ctrl+M`	Open Multi Job	Jumps to the `AutoCreate` view of the `Jobs` screen, where you create job batches.
`Escape`	Close	Closes the `Settings` window and other open popups and dialogs.

Note

Ctrl+S saves the solution — it does not start a solve. To run a solve, click ▶ Run Solve in the top bar.

Where shortcuts are shown

You do not need to memorize this table. The app shows each shortcut next to its command:

In the ••• menu in the top bar, menu items display their shortcut on the right — for example, New spot shows Ctrl+N, Save Solution as .art… shows Ctrl+S, and Export solution… shows Ctrl+E.
The ✚ New spot button in the top bar also shows its Ctrl+N label.
Popups that close with Escape say so — look for Esc to close.

Why these six

The shortcuts cover the loop you repeat most while building a study library: set up a spot (Ctrl+N), save the result (Ctrl+S), export it (Ctrl+E), check on batch work (Ctrl+J, Ctrl+M), and back out of any window (Escape).
