This is a list of all customisable keyboard actions in OpenMPT. They can be configured in the [[Manual: Setup/Keyboard|Keyboard Setup dialog]].

== Global Keys ==

Global keyboard shortcuts work on most parts of OpenMPT as long as one of the program’s windows is focussed. '''Note''': Some keyboard shortcuts are ignored when the input focus is within a text field.

When navigating (moving the cursor) to before the first row or after the last row in the pattern, the cursor “wraps” to the other side of the same pattern, if the “Cursor Wrap” option is enabled (in the Options section of the [[Manual: Setup/General|General tab]] of the Setup dialog). If navigating beyond the first or last row when the “Continuous Scroll” option is enabled, the cursor will instead move to the previous/next pattern in the order list.
