Key Bindings

Note: Before using the keyboard you must set the focus within the frame by clicking once on the frame.

Some of these actions refer to the "current word" - that's either the word you're hovering over, or have clicked.

Navigation

Key Action
Right Move to next word
Shift + Right Move to next unknown or learning word (skip known and ignored)
Left Move to previous word
Shift + Left Move to previous unknown or learning word (skip known and ignored)
Home Move to first word
End Move to last word
Esc Reset marked term(s)

Misc actions

Key Action
t Translate the sentence of the current word
Shift + t Translate the paragraph of the current word
c Copy the sentence of the current word to the clipboard
Shift + c Copy the paragraph of the current word to the clipboard

Updating status

You can edit the status of the current word with a keystroke:

Key Set status of marked term(s) to
1 - 5 1 (Learning) to 5 (Learned)
i "Ignored"
w "Well Known"

You can also "bulk update" statuses by holding down Shift and clicking with the mouse. All of the underlined terms will then be affected when you hit 1, 2, etc.
