Scope is built to work from the keyboard. You can open the search bar, move through results, ask a question, and pin an item without touching the mouse. On a Mac, use ⌘ (Command). On Windows, ChromeOS, and Linux, use Ctrl. These keys work on Canvas and Brightspace pages.
If the shortcuts don’t respond right after a page loads, click anywhere on the page once and try again. On pages that aren’t Canvas or Brightspace, click the Scope icon in your toolbar instead.

​
Turn off the / shortcut

If / gets in your way, open the Scope popup, go to Settings > Features, and turn off Open search with /. ⌘+K and Ctrl+K keep working.

​
Move through results

These keys work in the search bar and in the toolbar popup.

​
Ask questions and follow up

​
In the toolbar popup

To see a short list of shortcuts inside Scope, open the popup and go to Settings > Help & shortcuts.

​
Change the shortcut

Scope’s shortcuts are built into its course-page search bar, so you can’t change them in Chrome’s keyboard shortcut settings. You can only turn off the / shortcut, as described earlier.

Commands

Every command you can type in the search bar.
