The keyboard shortcuts document that the OmniGroup has created for OmniFocus has most keyboard shortcuts, but not all. I couldn't find a complete list, so I thought a community-contributed shortcuts documents was needed. I started with the OmniGroup document and added a few items, but I know there are more.

Please contribute! Just post a note to this thread and I'll add it to the list.

Since the symbols for control, option, etc. can't be shown on the forum, I've replaced them with <control>, <option>, etc. When the list is really complete (with your help), the symbols can be put back for a PDF version of the list.

Not covered in the original Omnigroup document:

Focus/Selection Legend:
Some keyboard shortcuts will do different things depending on the current focus (sidebar or main) and selection (item or text). If you see <item> as part of a keyboard shortcut, then the keyboard shortcut only works if the entire item, rather than some text in the item, is selected. For example, <item>D means that if you type 'd', and one or more items are selected, the items will be moved down.
	Focused on sidebar	<sidebar>
	Focused on main	<main>
	Item(s) selected	<item>
	Text selected (item)	<text>
	Text selected (in note)	<text:note>
		<text:note> is almost always the same as <text>, so if you see <text> it usually also applies to <text:note>

Non-menu Keyboard Shortcuts
	Switch from text editing to item selected	<main><text>ESC
	Switch to/fom editing note (1 item selected)		<command>'
	Hide/show note (multiple items selected)		<command>'
		all notes in folder/project	<sidebar><command>'

Modifier Clicks
	Open new window focused on folder or project	<option> double-click project or folder
	Please contribute more...
