Navicat Hotkeys

This page documents 185 keyboard shortcuts for Navicat across macOS and Windows, spanning 13 workflow areas including Query Editor, SQL Builder, Data Viewer, Debugger, ER Diagram View, and more. Navicat is a database management and design tool that supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and several other databases.

Query Editor and SQL Builder are the highest-return sections for anyone writing or running queries regularly. Data Viewer covers table-level browsing and editing, which pairs well with Query Editor in daily use. The Common section contains general shortcuts that apply across multiple contexts.

Some shortcuts differ between the two platforms, mainly because macOS uses the Command key where Windows uses Control. The page distinguishes between macOS and Windows bindings, so make sure you are reading the column that matches your system.

Focus on the two or three sections that match how you actually use Navicat. If you mostly run queries, Query Editor and SQL Builder are your core reference. If you do schema work, Table / Collection Designer and ER Diagram View matter more. There is no need to work through every category.
