Chosen leans on the mouse for most things. The keyboard shortcuts that do exist are listed here in full — this is the real set, not a wish list.
Navigation
Ctrl+B — or Cmd+B on a Mac — collapses and expands the left sidebar. Useful when you want more horizontal room for the candidates table.
Editing fields
When you're editing a value inline — a cell in the candidates table, a name in a settings field — two keys apply:
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enter | Save the edit and exit the field. |
| Esc | Cancel the edit. The field reverts to its previous value. |
The same pair works in most text inputs and dialogs across Chosen: Enter confirms, Esc closes.
Sending a message
In a chat-style input — the HQ assistant or a sourcing search box — Enter sends the message. To add a line break instead of sending, use Shift+Enter.
The availability grid
The interview availability grid is fully keyboard-navigable. Click a cell to focus it, then:
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| ↑ ↓ ← → | Move between time slots. |
| Space or Enter | Toggle the focused slot on or off. |
| Home | Jump to the start of the day's row. |
| End | Jump to the end of the row. |
| Esc | Leave the grid. |
That's the list
Chosen doesn't have a command palette, vim-style row navigation, or per-page hotkeys. If a keyboard shortcut would genuinely speed up your day, tell us — a short honest list is better than a long invented one, and the list grows when a shortcut earns its place.
