Keyboard Shortcuts Every RAXXO Tool Ships With

Description and use

Keyboard shortcuts in RAXXO tools improve user efficiency by providing a small, carefully curated set of keys for the most frequent actions, along with a '?' legend that lets users quickly discover available combinations.

Problem

Users of RAXXO tools perform a handful of repetitive actions each session but never have a consistent, low-friction way to execute them without using the mouse.

Outcome

The shortcut system reduced mouse clicks for frequent actions, improved user efficiency, and increased daily engagement without generating support tickets or requiring users to learn a large key map.

Workflow

• 1. Identify actions performed more than a handful of times per session.
• 2. Apply a frequency test: only actions that meet the threshold receive a shortcut.
• 3. Apply a reversibility filter: destructive actions require a modifier or are omitted.
• 4. Check each candidate key against browser‑reserved and OS‑reserved shortcuts.
• 5. Manually test each shortcut in the target browsers to ensure it wins over defaults.
• 6. Bind the shortcut to the action in the tool’s code.
• 7. Add a '?' key that opens a legend listing all shortcuts and their descriptions.
• 8. Release the tool with the new shortcut set.
• 9. Monitor user adoption and adjust if any shortcut causes confusion or collision.

Evidence

Every RAXXO tool ships with a small, fixed set of keyboard shortcuts chosen for the actions someone repeats dozens of times a session, not for decoration

A single '?' key opens a legend in every tool, so nobody has to guess what is bound or dig through a settings page to find out

I cap it at under ten shortcuts per tool and run every candidate through a frequency test before it earns a key
