Keybindings are local keyboard shortcuts. They are a local UI preference, not shared Task content.

Customize Shortcuts

Every shortcut below can be changed. Open Settings → Keybindings, then:

Find the command

Locate the action you want to change in the list.

Capture a new shortcut

Click Capture shortcut, then press the key combination you want to assign.

Clear or reset (optional)

Click Clear to unbind an action, or Reset all to defaults to restore every shortcut at once.

Sub-leader configuration sets the secondary modifier (default Opt / Alt) used by the number shortcuts in the tables below.

Number shortcuts are leader chords: hold the modifier and press a digit.
