Shortcut Key Symbols

Menu items may show a keyboard shortcut, using symbols for special keys.

⎋ escape key

⇥ tab key

↩ return/enter key

⌘ command key

⌥ option key

∧ control key

⇧ shift key

⌫ delete key

← left arrow key

→ right arrow key

↑ up arrow key

↓ down arrow key

↖ home key (fn ← )

↘ end key (fn → )

⇞ page up key (fn ↑ )

⇟ page down key (fn ↓ )

The Apple wireless and laptop keyboards do not have dedicated keys for the last four items; instead those four items are accomplished by holding the fn key in combination with an arrow key as indicated in parentheses.
