- Tab and Shift+Tab
To move into and out of the editor among other form elements, press tab and shift+tab. On supported browser and screenreader combinations, the editor should behave just like any other form elements in respect to tab and shift+tab key presses.
One exception to this rule is when config.tabSpaces is set to a non-zero value. In this case, if the user presses tab from inside the editor, spaces will be added to the editing area, and the focus will not be moved out of the editing area. Shift-tab would still work as expected when config.tabSpaces is set to a non-zero value. - Alt+F10
Pressing Alt+F10 when the editing area is focused will move the focus to the editor toolbar. - Shift+F10 or Ctrl+Shift+F10
Pressing Shift+F10 or Ctrl+Shift+F10 (in cases where Shift+F10 does not work), will open the context menu inside the editing area. - Alt+F11
Pressing Alt+F11 will put focus to the element path bar, usually at the bottom of the editor. While the element path bar is being focused, pressing tab and shift+tab will select HTML elements that are parents of the current element. Pressing Esc will move the focus back to the editing area without changing selection; while pressing Enter will select the element in the editing area.
