Keyboard shortcut symbols
You can use keyboard shortcuts—combinations of keys you press at the same time—to quickly accomplish many common tasks, such as selecting text and manipulating objects.
Many menu options include their keyboard shortcuts, such as ⌘N, where the symbol represents a “modifier key” on your keyboard.
Modifier key symbols are listed in the table below. For a complete list of all keyboard shortcuts in Keynote, including many not shown in the menus, see Keyboard shortcuts.
