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
