This is a list with RealFlow's default user interface shortcuts. Some of the most common shortcuts have been omitted because they are easy to find. Some of the shortcuts have a focus: this means that the user has to position the cursor at a certain place before pressing the appropriate key combination. This is typical for shortcuts like Alt + D that enables/disables the viewport. Normally it is needed to click on the viewport before the keys are pressed.
