# Customize your Keyboard Shortcuts
To speed up repetitive actions, Picsellia exposes keyboard shortcuts across several parts of the platform, such as the Annotation Studio and the data grids used to browse your `Data` and `Assets`. All of these shortcuts can be reviewed and personalized from your Personal Settings.
When annotating or reviewing thousands of images or videos, even a fraction of a second saved per action (switching classes, drawing a `Shape`, moving to the next `Asset`) adds up across a whole `Dataset`, which is why keeping your hands on the keyboard rather than reaching for the mouse can meaningfully speed up an annotation campaign.
## 1. Access your Shortcuts settings
The *Shortcuts* tab is available in your Personal Settings, alongside *General* and *Appearance*.
## 2. Browse the available shortcuts
The *Shortcuts* page lists every shortcut available on the platform:
* Use the *Filter shortcuts...* search bar to find a specific action by name.
* Use the *All* / *Studio* / *Data grid* tabs to only display the shortcuts relevant to a given part of the platform.
For each shortcut, the table displays:
* **Action:** the area badge (`Studio` or `Data grid`) followed by the action's identifier (e.g. `action:copy`, `draw:classification`).
* **Keystroke:** the key combination currently assigned to trigger this action, displayed as key badges (e.g. `⌘` + `C`). A shortcut with no assigned keystroke displays a dash.
* **Context:** some actions are only bound to a keystroke under specific conditions (for instance `inference_type: MULTI` or `has_campaign: true`), when the same action can behave differently depending on where it's triggered from.
* **Source:** whether the current keystroke is the Picsellia *Default*, or a value you personally customized.
## 3. Customize a shortcut
Click on the keystroke of any shortcut to open its edit panel.
### Recording a new keystroke
Click the _Keystroke_ field, then press the key combination you want to assign. You can chain several key combinations one after another to record a multi-step sequence. The new shortcut is saved automatically after a short pause, or you can click _Update_ to confirm it right away.
The Picsellia default keystroke for the action is always displayed for reference, and once you've set a custom value, a *Reset* button lets you revert to it at any time. Click *Cancel* to close the panel without applying any change.
### Personal customization
Shortcuts are customized per user, not per _Organization_: your personal keybindings follow you across every _Organization_ you're a member of, and won't affect your colleagues.
## 4. Shortcut hints across the platform
Throughout Picsellia, whenever an action or a button has a keyboard shortcut assigned to it, hovering over it displays a tooltip showing that shortcut. This tooltip always reflects the keystroke that will actually be triggered: the Picsellia *Default* one, or the one you personalized from the *Shortcuts* settings if you've customized it.
