The command palette is the Search... bar in the top navigation bar. It takes you to any page you can access, runs a few common actions and starts a search in your styles, collections or materials, all from the keyboard.

Top navigation barSearch...

  1. Open the palette

    Click the Search... field in the top bar, or press ⌘K on Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows. Press the same shortcut again to close it. On a phone, tap the search icon in the top bar.

  2. Type what you need

    Type in the field Search pages, actions, or entities.... Results update as you type and the matching text is highlighted. You can type part of a name, several words (col sty) or the first letters of each word (cs finds Collection & Styles).

  3. Choose a result

    Use ↑ and ↓ to move through the results and press ↵ to open the highlighted one. Press Esc to close the palette. On a phone, tap Cancel.

If nothing matches, the palette shows No results found.

What the palette shows

  • Recent: when the field is empty, the pages you opened from the palette, most used and most recent first. Click Clear recent items to empty the list. Recent items are remembered in your browser only.
  • Quick Actions: shown on some pages only. On the Collection pages you see Create New Collection, and on the Materials pages Create New Material, if you have permission to create them.
  • Pages: every page in the left sidebar that you can access, with its section on the right. Pages for features that are switched off for your brand, or that you have no permission for, are not listed. Pages related to the one you are on are listed first.
  • Actions: Toggle Sidebar, Switch Brand, Switch to Dark Mode or Switch to Light Mode, and Log Out.
  • Search in...: after you type at least two characters, shortcuts such as Search Styles for "name", Search Collections for "name" and Search Materials for "name" open that list with your text already in the search box. Each one appears only if you can view that kind of record.
