Command Bar

Purpose

Quickly search for and execute the most important actions in the application entirely from your keyboard with CMD K on Mac, Ctrl K on Windows.

Walkthrough

Pulling up and using the command bar

Type Cmd K or Ctrl K to bring up the command bar. Then you can start typing to search for commands.

Almost anything you can do with your mouse or keyboard shortcuts, and more, is available in the command bar.

In some cases, certain commands will be greyed out. This happens when a certain action isn't available in your current view.

Task actions

While hovering over a task and opening the command bar, standard task actions are available to be preformed on that focused task, such as starting the timer on that task, assigning a channel, etc.

Workspace navigation

The command bar can also be used to navigate and filter your workspace to different views. For example:

• Type the name of a view like "focus" to enter focus mode.
• Type "dark" to toggle dark mode
• Type "#" to filter by channel

You can also be taken to different places, such as:

• Type "settings" to go to your Sunsama settings
• Type "Help" to go to this help center

Search your tasks

Use the command bar as a quick way to search tasks. But for a more robust search, use the search feature in the right hand panel.

Sort your task list

Sort the task list that is focused chronologically or other ways by typing the word "Sort".

More info on these sorting actions be found here.

Best practices

• On the right hand side of every command, you'll see its associated keyboard shortcut. If you learn these, you can skip the step of typing Cmd K and searching for your action.
• In order to use the Command Bar actions associated with a task, you must have your mouse hovered over that task to start.
• You can search through your tasks and notes by typing directly in the Command Palette. Type Cmd K and simply type your search.
