# Shortcuts
Actions can be performed on the scrcpy window using keyboard and mouse
shortcuts.
In the following list, MOD is the shortcut modifier. By default, it's
(left) Alt or (left) Super.
It can be changed using `--shortcut-mod`. Possible keys are `lctrl`, `rctrl`,
`lalt`, `ralt`, `lsuper` and `rsuper`. For example:
```bash
# use RCtrl for shortcuts
scrcpy --shortcut-mod=rctrl
# use either LCtrl or LSuper for shortcuts
scrcpy --shortcut-mod=lctrl,lsuper
```
_[Super] is typically the Windows or Cmd key._

Shortcuts with repeated keys are executed by releasing and pressing the key a
second time. For example, to execute "Expand settings panel":
1. Press and keep pressing MOD.
2. Then double-press n.
3. Finally, release MOD.
All Ctrl+_key_ shortcuts are forwarded to the device, so they are
handled by the active application.
