Here is the Big List of Keyboard Shortcuts:

I’ve probably missed a few things in different operating systems and locales—please let me know and I’ll make corrections.

We’ve just deployed some improvements to our keyboard shortcuts.
1. On non-macOS platforms, the commands for moving a cell are now Control-Shift-Up and Control-Shift-Down. On mac, they are still Option-Command-Up ⌥⌘↑ and Option-Command-Down ⌥⌘↓, respectively.
2. On macOS, we disabled several non-standard commands that were in CodeMirror’s defaults. Option-B ⌥B, Option-F ⌥F, Option-D ⌥D now insert a ∫, ƒ and ∂, respectively. Also disabled: Command-D ⌘D (used by some browsers to create a bookmark), Command-U ⌘U, and Shift-Command-U ⇧⌘U.

Apologies if this has already been discussed elsewhere (perhaps someone can point me to the right place 😬) but one keyboard shortcut that I think would be really useful is to create a new cell. Is there a standard workflow that people follow? I love Observable so far but I find that I do have to switch to using the mouse to click on the + icons when I want to insert a new cell underneath the current one…
Thank you! 🙏

You can use the “split cell” keyboard shortcut (alt-enter) at either the top or the bottom of the cell to create a new cell above or below, respectively. Note that when you create a new cell above the current cell this way, you have to press the up arrow to move the cursor into it, but if you create it below, your cursor starts out in the new cell automatically.
This is in some sense inverse to [the fact that the “merge cell” key](https://talk.observablehq.com/t/i-would-love-a-hotkey-to-delete-a-cell/37/3) can be used to delete cells.

You can use Option-Shift-Return (macOS) or Alt-Shift-Enter to split a cell and focus the one before it, per our [keyboard shortcuts](https://beta.observablehq.com/@observablehq/keyboard-shortcuts).

Any keyboard shortcut to go fullscreen?

Sorry but I must have missed somme thing.
Under Windows 10, the Alt+Shift+P combinaison of keys is bound:
- with Chrome to printer selection
- with Firefox to new private windows
So, how can I Pin/Unpin the selected cells?
Or, is there a table to remap, the shortcuts?

feature: duplicate cell
it would be great to have a shortcut for duplicating a cell cell
alternatively you could hold “alt” + drag the blue bar of the cell to the position you want to have that cell duplicated to
