Below are the shortcuts available in Markdown Clap. There are 3 types of shortcuts available: copy/paste operations, text transformations, and inspections.

Copy/paste Operations

Copy and paste operations can be done from content outside of Markdown Clap. For example, if you paste a comma-separated values (CSV) to the text input, then Markdown Clap will try to convert it into a Markdown table automatically. Similarly, when you copy cells from a spreadsheet application (browser-based or desktop-based), when pasted, Markdown Clap will also convert it with the same fashion.

  1. Copy (Cmd/Ctrl+c)
  2. Paste and transform (when applicable) (Cmd/Ctrl+v)
  3. Raw paste (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+v)

Direct transformations

Direct transformations are ways to modify the text using mouse clicks or keyboard shortcuts a-la WYSIWYG.

  1. Add indentation of 2 spaces (Tab)
  2. Heading 1 (Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+1)
  3. Heading 2 (Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+2)
  4. Heading 3 (Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+3)
  5. Heading 4 (Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+4)
  6. Heading 5 (Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+5)
  7. Heading 6 (Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+6)
  8. Bold (Cmd/Ctrl+b)
  9. Italic (Cmd/Ctrl+i)

Inspections

Markdown inspections are the initial reason on why Markdown Clap was created. This inspection feature allows improved Markdown table editing. For example, previously when we want to re-order row numbers, then it is very chore work as we need to update every row number one-by-one. However, with the inspection feature, we can just set the entire row numbers via the inspection tools. Currently, only table inspection is supported.

  1. Inspect element (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+`)
  2. Save changes (Cmd/Ctrl+Enter)
