Keyboard shortcuts

The window has a handful of shortcuts of its own. Inside a profile, the browser’s shortcuts are Chrome’s.

Inside a profile

When a profile’s browser is in front, the keyboard belongs to it: new tab, close tab, reload, find on the page, the address bar, back and forward work exactly as in Chrome on your system.

  • The command that closes a browser window closes the profile.
  • Full screen makes the whole Liminal window full-screen.
