Layout & keys
Shared navigation and input behavior across main tabs unless a tab doc says otherwise.
Pane focus
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| Tab | Toggle focus: left (categories) ↔ middle (contents) |
| h / l | Focus left or middle pane |
| v / t / m / w | Focus right-pane tab: Viewer, Templates, Metadata, Writing (Snapshot / Lenses / Duplicates file rows) |
| Shift+Tab | Cycle right-pane tabs |
The right pane is driven by the middle selection on Snapshot, Lenses, and Duplicates when viewing a file row. On Delta, the right pane shows snapshot overview text only.
Catalog search
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| / | Fuzzy filter on categories and file list |
| Esc | Clear filter |
Command Mode and quick-action menus are disabled while the search bar is active.
Preview scrolling
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| Shift+b / Shift+e | Top / bottom of preview (Templates: scroll examples when ↑↓ on the frame) |
| Shift+↑↓ or Shift+K/J | Line up / down (Templates: previous / next pattern) |
On Templates with structured views (v0.2.4+), those Shift keys navigate patterns and example overflow instead of scrolling a flat JSON dump — see Templates.
Main tab cycling
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| ~ | Next main tab (Snapshot → Lenses → Delta → …) |
Enhance workflow
How much ZahirScan data appears in the right pane:
| Mode | Config / action |
|---|---|
| Path-only | Default snapshot — fast index, minimal JSON |
| Batch enhance | enable_enhance_all or [[enhance_policy]] with policy = "auto" |
| On demand | Enhance with ZahirScan from quick actions or multi-select |
See Path-only vs full enhance and Enhance policies.
