Keyboard Shortcuts

Use keyboard shortcuts to start common copy, paste, clear, and Autofill actions without reopening the extension popup.

General shortcuts

Open MultiField CopyCat, open Shortcut Settings, and review the two shortcut types:

  • Browser commands are managed on Chrome's extension shortcuts page.
  • In-page shortcuts are stored by MultiField CopyCat and edited in its settings.

Use copy, paste, and Autofill actions from the keyboard.

  1. Open Shortcut Settings.
  2. Follow the link to Chrome's extension shortcut settings.
  3. Find MultiField CopyCat and enter a new key combination for the command.
