# Keyboard shortcuts

> Every Dax tool has its own global shortcut — here's the full list.

Every one of the fourteen tools has a dedicated global shortcut, plus a
handful of shortcuts for Dax itself (the launcher, Settings). All shortcuts
below are the defaults — rebind or clear any of them in **Settings →
Shortcuts** (<kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>H</kbd>), so yours may differ.

<Note>
  New to Dax? [How Dax works](/how-dax-works) covers the launcher grid,
  activation, and offline behavior that apply to every tool below.

## Dax shortcuts (not tools)

| Shortcut                                   | Opens                                                                    |
| ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| <kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>Space</kbd> | The tool launcher grid — click a tile or press <kbd>1</kbd>–<kbd>9</kbd> |
| <kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>,</kbd>     | Settings                                                                 |
| <kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>T</kbd>     | Settings → Tools tab (per-tool config)                                   |
| <kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>H</kbd>     | Settings → Shortcuts tab (rebind shortcuts)                              |

## Managing tools

Every tool can be:

* **Enabled or disabled** — Settings → Tools → *(tool)* → **Enabled**.
  Disabled tools don't respond to their shortcut and are hidden from the
  launcher.
* **Rebound or cleared** — Settings → Shortcuts (<kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd>
  <kbd>H</kbd>).
* **Reordered or pinned** in the launcher — Settings → Launcher.

<Tip>
  Don't have a shortcut memorized yet? Press <kbd>⌃</kbd> <kbd>⌥</kbd>
  <kbd>Space</kbd> for the launcher grid — every tool is one click (or one
  number key) away.
