How to customize ShiftTable keyboard shortcuts

Choose which ShiftTable shortcuts are active and avoid conflicts with browser or web-app commands.

ShiftTable has separate switches for opening the AI sidebar, capturing tables, and recognizing broader resources such as images, code, and articles. Customize those switches when a shortcut conflicts with a web app or when you want a smaller command set.

Change the shortcut set

  1. Open ShiftTable Settings and select Shortcuts.
  2. Review Shift + A for the AI sidebar, Shift + T for the table workflow, and Shift + F for resource recognition. Turn off only the shortcut you do not want active.
  3. Check the Recognition and Toolbar sections separately. Disabling a recognition type or toolbar action changes what appears after capture; it is not the same as disabling a keyboard shortcut.
  4. Return to a page and refresh it after changing settings. Then test the shortcut over the intended resource and verify that the expected launcher or toolbar appears.

Avoiding conflicts

Browser and web-app shortcuts can run at the same time as an extension shortcut. Test the combination on a low-risk page, especially in editors, spreadsheets, and video players. If a page owns the same command, disable the ShiftTable shortcut you do not need, then use the launcher or the remaining actions.

Common questions

Why did a change not take effect?

The open page may still have an older content script. Refresh the page after changing settings, and check that the relevant recognition type and toolbar action are enabled.

What to remember

Shortcuts decide how recognition starts; recognition and toolbar settings decide what ShiftTable can show afterward. Change one group at a time so a missing action is easy to diagnose.
