# Shortcuts Shortcuts are an awesome way to level up your Cut-It experience. All Emphasis levels, formatting utilities, AutoCut options, and more can be fully controlled from shortcuts. We ship Cut-It with these predefined as follows: * `Ctrl+S` to invoke Primary Emphasis * `Ctrl+Shift+S` to invoke Secondary Emphasis * `Ctrl+Alt+S` to invoke Tertiary Emphasis * `Ctrl+K` to Clear Selection Formatting * `Alt+M` to invoke Minimize Selection * `Ctrl+N` to Cut a New Card * `Ctrl+D` to invoke AutoPoll * `Ctrl+Shift+D` to invoke AutoCite * `Ctrl+Alt+D` to invoke AutoPoll and AutoCite * `Ctrl+P` to invoke Export to PDF * `Ctrl+W` to close the app ## :keyboard: Viewing and Recording Shortcuts ![](https://i.gyazo.com/7578500b474330b3ac9fec7449733115.gif) You can check what any shortcut is currently defined as by selecting it from the dropdown and viewing the output. To record a new shortcut, click the output box (it should receive a blue border) and type in any key combination. The changes will apply on the next restart. ## :confused: There's... more? Yes, but no.
