Keyboard Shortcuts

Summary of available keyboard shortcuts in NegPy.

All shortcuts, including slider adjustments, can be changed in-app from the ? shortcut overlay via Customize. Slider shortcuts are shown as merged rows (e.g. Density ↑/↓) with a customizable Step column — defaults match the built-in keyboard increments below.

Numpad keys can be bound separately from the number row (e.g. Num+9 vs 9). Num Lock must be on for numpad digits to register.
