KeyCue For Mac

Most Mac applications come with a collection of keyboard shortcuts that can be used to trigger various actions. These hotkeys are designed to improve your productivity level, but you must manage to memorize them beforehand.

KeyCue is a small Mac utility designed to streamline the entire process by quickly displaying a panel that lists all the supported hotkeys for the currently active utility. This way, you will be able to memorize them a lot faster.

The KeyCue installation procedure resumes to double clicking the item included in the KeyCue mounted image disk: the installer will automatically copy the utility to the Applications directory.

It is also important to note that you must also allow KeyCue to control your computer: open the System Preferences and check the appropriate box in the Accessibility panel.

KeyCue resides in your status bar and you get to easily access the hotkeys panel by clicking the app’s icon or by using yet another keyboard shortcut: right click on top of the menu bar icon to access the KeyCue Preferences and view all the activation methods.

The KeyCue app comes with 8 different themes that can be applied to the hotkey panel in no time. Via the Preferences window you can easily preview the themes and adjust the transparency level for the KeyCue window.

The same area allows you to disable the KeyCue status bar menu, to adjust the delay period before the activation hotkeys kick in, to select the layout mode for the keyboard combinations, to set up custom hotkeys for certain applications, and more.

KeyCue is a must-have app for your Mac if you plan to improve your productivity by taking advantage of the hotkeys supported by your applications.

Moreover, the KeyCue activation methods are available system wide so you get to quickly see a complete keyboard shortcuts list for any utility installed on your Mac in no time.
