Keyboard shortcuts

Last updated: October 2026

Press ? anywhere in Flowmaps to see every shortcut, or click the keyboard button at the top left of the mind map, next to History. On a Mac, use ⌘ where it says Ctrl.

Anywhere

  • N: Quick idea, add an idea card to a venture
  • / or Ctrl+K: search help (on a venture's pages the search box at the top, elsewhere the Help Center)
  • ?: the list of shortcuts
  • Esc: close a window or panel

On the mind map

  • Ctrl+Z: undo
  • Shift+Ctrl+Z or Ctrl+Y: redo
  • Shift + drag: select several cards with a box
  • Ctrl + click: add a card to the selection, or take it out
  • Backspace: delete the selected card or line
  • Scroll or pinch: zoom in and out

Typing an idea

  • Enter: add it
  • Shift+Enter: new line (the first line becomes the title)

Shortcuts don't fire while you're typing in a field, so N and ? there are just letters.
