What is this shortcuts page for DaVinci Resolve?

It collects 340 keyboard shortcuts across eight sections: Application, Colors, Editing, F Keys, Navigation, Nodes, Toggles, and Viewers & Displays. The page serves as a reference for both the editing and color grading sides of the application.

With 340 shortcuts on the page, where should I focus first?

Editing and Navigation cover the actions you reach for most often on the timeline - cutting clips, moving the playhead, and switching between panels. Once your edit is locked, Colors and Nodes become more relevant for grading work.

Do the shortcuts change between Mac and Windows?

Some do. The biggest differences come from Cmd versus Ctrl and a few platform-specific bindings. It is worth scanning your OS column before building muscle memory for a shortcut.

Do I need to know all 340 shortcuts to work efficiently?

No. Most editors rely on a small core set day to day. Use this page as a lookup when you find yourself reaching for the mouse repeatedly, or when you move into a new section like Nodes or Toggles for the first time.
