Keyboard Shortcuts
Open the In-App Reference
The keyboard shortcuts reference is built into MoveIt Pro so it always matches the installed version, which is why the full list is not repeated here. Open Settings and select Keyboard Shortcuts, or press Shift+?. The Google-style Ctrl+/ on Windows/Linux and Cmd+/ on macOS opens it as well.
The reference groups shortcuts by where they apply: those that work anywhere in MoveIt Pro, those that work in the Objectives search, and those that work in the Behavior Tree editor. It shows the bindings for the platform you are on, so a Mac shows Cmd where Windows and Linux show Ctrl.
F1 opens this documentation site in a new browser tab.
Stop the Running Objective
Press Escape to stop the running Objective. It does the same as the navbar's Stop button (Stop Objective, or Stop Motion on views without the Objective controls), and does nothing when no Objective is running or when the current access mode cannot stop one.
Escape keeps its other jobs first. While you are typing in a text field, while a dialog, menu, or dropdown is open, while a selected Behavior Tree node or edge has focus, while you are dragging a joint slider, or while the measure tool is active, Escape does that job and leaves the Objective running.
A custom view pane is a separate page embedded in MoveIt Pro, and keys pressed while it has focus stay inside it. Click outside the pane before pressing Escape, or use the Stop Objective button.
The panel toggles are unmodified letters, each the initial of what it opens: M for the mode menu, O for Objectives, T for training, A for alerts, and S for settings. They are ignored while you are typing in a text field, so a letter you type is never also a shortcut. Editor shortcuts such as copy and paste keep their Ctrl and Cmd bindings.
Run an Objective from the Search Box
Type in the search box at the top of the Objectives sidebar, then press ArrowDown or ArrowUp to highlight one of the results. The highlight stops at the first and last result rather than wrapping around. Press Enter to ask to run the highlighted Objective. With nothing highlighted, Enter highlights the first result, or, when the search found only one Objective, asks to run that one.
Enter never starts an Objective on its own. It opens a confirmation, and only Y or the Run Objective button starts the run; E or the Edit button opens the Objective in the editor instead, and N or Escape cancels. When the confirmation closes, the search box has focus again. The confirmation is not offered for an Objective whose run button is disabled, or while another Objective is running or starting.
