This page is currently a cut and paste from 3.6. It will be updated


Application Hot-keys (keyboard accelerators)

Developers: Please note the following reserved key combinations!

  • Alt-Left mouse button should always be available as a substitute for the middle mouse button to support two button mice. On Mac, you can also use the command key with a mouse click to get middle mouse events.
  • Contrl-Left mouse button should always be available as a substitute for the right mouse button to support one button mice (on Mac).


Key(s) Action bound to key(s)
Ctrl+O Load a new scene (clears existing scene)
Ctrl+A Import a scene (does not clear existing scene) Brings up Add Data panel instead
Ctrl+W Close a scene
Ctrl+H Set the current module to be the "home" module -- the module that's exposed when Slicer starts up.
Ctrl+Z Undo the last undoable action
Ctrl+Y Redo the last redoable action
Space-key Toggles the display of Slicer's Edit Box.
Ctrl+P Display the Python console Displays the QT-real console
Ctrl+L Create a new fiducial list.
Ctrl+I Toggle between "Persistent Place" and "Transform View" interaction modes.
Ctrl+M Create a new Ruler measurement between the last two placed fiducials.

Slice Viewer Hot-keys (keyboard accelerators)

Key(s) Action bound to key(s)
` (back-tick key) Navigate to next fiducial in the active Slice Viewer, or in all viewers if they are linked (back-tick is the left single-quote on the key with the tilde (~) character in the upper left side of the keyboard)
Ctrl+` (back-tick key) Navigate to next fiducial in all Slice Viewers, independent of their linked state
Shift+` (back-tick key) Navigate to the previous fiducial in the active Slice Viewer, or in all viewers if they are linked
Ctrl+Shift+` (back-tick key) Navigate to the previous fiducial in all Slice Viewers, independent of their linked state
p-key Place a new fiducial in the active Slice Viewer(adds to the current fiducial list, or creates a list if there are none)
o-key Turn on the Slice Plane reformat widget in the active Slice Viewer
v-key Toggles the slice plane visibility in the main 3D Viewer
r-key Fits the slice view to the volume extents in the active Slice Viewer, or in all viewers if they are linked (the first non-none volume will be used in order of Background, Foreground and Label layers)
b-key Decrement slice in the active Slice Viewer (left or down) by one unit of background pixel spacing
f-key Increment slice in the active Slice Viewer (right or up) by one unit of backgroun dpixel spacing
Backspace-key When the mouse is hovering over a fiducial in the Slice Viewer (turning it yellow), delete that fiducial
Delete-key When the mouse is hovering over a fiducial in the Slice Viewer (turning it yellow), delete that fiducial

Global "hot-keys"

Window Behavior

Action Slicer3 Key Meaning
Toggle Maximize current window Control-m Make the current Slice or 3D View expand to full view space or return to previous size depending on current state

Save Scene As... None Bring up file browser to locate .mrml file
Undo Control-Z Revert to last undo point
Redo Control-Y Revert to last redo point
Other Menu Items Alt-<letter> Bring up or invoke menu or menu item corresponding to letter

Navigating Application

Action Slicer3 Key Meaning
Application Menu Space Bar Brings up a popup menu with all the application operations and their key binding information
Module Navigation Control-<number> Jumps to the numbered module (number order is the same as the order of the shortcut icons in the toolbar at the top of the application.
Move through module history Control-PageUp/PageDown Short cuts for the two arrow buttons next to the module popup menu
Search for Module Control-F Starts an incremental search through the module names and descriptions, terminated by Enter to jump to the module. Probably needs a dialog box.
