Shortcuts
Global shortcuts
These work in any app. Defaults use the common layout: ⇧⌘ (Shift + Command) and a number. Search, Scan QR Code and Library use ⌥⇧ (Option + Shift).
| Action | Default |
|---|---|
| Area | ⇧⌘4 |
| Window | ⇧⌘5 |
| Scrolling | ⇧⌘7 |
| Full Screen | ⇧⌘3 |
| Record (and Stop) | ⇧⌘9 |
| Copy Text | ⇧⌘2 |
| Previous Area | ⇧⌘6 |
| Scan QR Code | ⌥⇧9 |
| Self-Timer | ⇧⌘8 |
| Search | ⌥⇧F |
| Library | ⌥⇧H (shown in the menu) |
If ⇧⌘3, ⇧⌘4 or ⇧⌘5 do nothing
macOS uses these for its own screenshots and wins. Turn them off in System Settings › Keyboard › Keyboard Shortcuts › Screenshots. Frayo shows a reminder in Settings › Shortcuts while they clash. Or pick No macOS Conflicts in the Preset menu to use ⌥⇧ and a number instead (Area ⌥⇧4, Full Screen ⌥⇧3, Window ⌥⇧5, Record ⌥⇧8, and so on; no Self-Timer shortcut).
Change one
- Open Settings › Shortcuts.
- Click the field next to the action.
- Press the new combination.
A shortcut needs ⌥ or ⌃, or must be a function key (F1 to F12). This stops a shortcut from taking over keys like ⌘C. Clear a field to turn the shortcut off. Choose a Preset to reset them all.
If another app already uses a combination, Frayo shows a notice and leaves that shortcut off until you change it.

Use a mouse button
Apps like Logi Options+ can send a keystroke from a mouse button. Assign it one of the shortcuts above. A native Logitech plugin is planned.
