Hotkeys

Nuix Investigate provides several keyboard hotkeys to perform specific actions within an open case.

There are two types of hotkeys: predefined, and custom. Predefined hotkeys are standard shortcuts provided by Nuix Investigate and are always available when viewing a case. Custom hotkeys are shortcuts created by an administrator within the User Management tool.

The hotkey legend, located within the Support menu when viewing a case displays all hotkeys, both predefined and custom, that are available for use. The predefined hotkeys include the following:

Predefined Hotkeys	Action
Ctrl + Enter / ⌘ + Enter	Saves any selections made to the Tag and Secured Field tabs.
Shift + Click	Select all contiguous items.
Shift + Enter	Saves any selections made on the Tag and Secured Field tabs and advances to the next item within the Review View. Note: If using Chrome, the cursor must be in the Tags or Secured Fields tab for this hotkey to work.
Shift + D	Select all duplicate items.
Shift + F	Select all Family items.
Shift + N	Select all near duplicates.

Use Hotkeys to perform actions in Nuix Investigate or the Nuix User Management tool. If a user interface element has an associated hotkey, hovering over the element displays the hotkey for that element. You can create up to ten custom hotkeys. For information on creating custom hotkeys, see the Nuix Investigate Configuration Guide.
