<![CDATA[FAQ: List of Notepad++ key combinations, available for shortcuts]]>Hi, All,

Here is a table, below, which recapitulates all the key combinations to get available shortcuts in Notepad++ :

  • This table is mainly intended for French people but I both included the US and FR keyboard layouts, so just test !

  • The locations containing the letter x means that the corresponding shortcut is not available, as used by Windows OS itself

  • The locations containing the letter d means that the corresponding shortcut is already used, by default, by Notepad++

  • So, when a location is empty, the modifier key(s) and the corresponding key should form a valid N++ shortcut !

For the US, FR and GB keyboard layouts, refer, respectively, to :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QWERTY#/media/File:Qwerty.svg

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AZERTY#/media/File:Azerty_fr.svg

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#/media/File:ISO_keyboard_(105)_QWERTY_UK.svg

And all the virtual keys codes can be obtained from :

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/inputdev/virtual-key-codes

I found out some keys, not listed in Settings > Shortcut Mapper..., which, however, can be used to form some valid shortcuts ! They are :

  • Just test the allowed combinations of the modifier keys ( Shift , Ctrl and Alt ) with these special keys ;-))

Remarks :

  • However, even the allowed combinations with the VK_NUMLOCK key, are rather useless because it toggles the Num Lock status, too !

  • It is also important to note that the forbidden x locations, in tables below, were tested on a French keyboard with a Win XP SP3 system. So, further testing may be necessary, regarding your OS and/or your keyboard layout !

  • On the numeric keypad, most of the combinations with the 0 to 9 keys and the . key are forbidden :

    • All combinations, involving a Shift key, are reserved by the system

    • The Alt key, alone, is used for the Windows input methods Alt + nnn, Alt + 0nnn and Alt +++ hhhh

  • I wasn’t able to get a valid combination with the VK_SNAPSHOT virtual key ( the Print Screen key ) on my French keyboard

  • I had to split this table in four parts, as posts, on NodeBB, cannot have a size over 16,384 bytes, about !

The first part concerns the moving keys, the delete keys, the enter keys, the space key and some system keys :

As of Notepad++ v8.7.6 in January 2025, the Shortcut Mapper should now list the keys based on the keyboard layout that was active when you started Notepad++. You should no longer need this FAQ, unless you are choosing to use an older version of Notepad++.

]]>https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/post/101303https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/post/101303Mon, 28 Apr 2025 17:21:32 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to FAQ: List of Notepad++ key combinations, available for shortcuts on Tue, 27 Feb 2024 14:05:28 GMT]]>Here the table for the Brazilian Portuguese layout (ABNT2) based on dinkumoil’s work:

|                     |   Pt/br Keyboard     |
| Npp shortcut mapper |---------+------------|--------------|--------------- |
|                     |  solo   | with SHIFT |  Virtual Key | KeyboardEvent  |

|        ]            |  [      |    {       |  VK_OEM_6    |  BracketRight  |
|        ;            |  ç      |    Ç       |  VK_OEM_1    |  Semicolon     |

|        \            |  ]      |    }       |  VK_OEM_5    |  Backslash     |
|        /            |  ;      |    :       |  VK_OEM_2    |  Slash         |
|        <>           |  \      |    |       |  VK_OEM_102  |  IntlBackslash |
|      Num .          |  Num ,  |    DEL     |  VK_DELETE   |  NumpadDecimal | *
|                     |  Num .  |            |  VK_ABNT_C2  |  NumpadComma   |
|                     |  /      |    ?       |  VK_ABNT_C1  |  IntlRo        |

* Shortcuts using the Shift key don't work with the Numpad, are they being overridden by the driver?

As a result, by using this layout one cannot bind commands to the / and Num . keys

And on any of the views, you can add a “Legend overlay” for the “scancodes” or “virtual keys”, so you can have multiple pieces of information.

So to see the US, French, and German keyboards mentioned above, with their normal key contents with the legend overlay of the “virtual keys”,

Keyboard Link
US https://kbdlayout.info/KBDUS/overview+virtualkeys
French https://kbdlayout.info/kbdfr/overview+virtualkeys
German https://kbdlayout.info/kbdgr/overview+virtualkeys
Portuguese https://kbdlayout.info/kbdbr/overview+virtualkeys

If you have a different keyboard, you can explore kbdlayout.info to find the “overview + virtualkeys” for your keyboard, and use the virtualkeys to look up the appropriate entry from @guy038’s tables above to find the right Shortcut Mapper entries.

The table in this post will be updated if new languages are added to the FAQ in additional posts below.

If you’d like to propose a table like the ones below for another language, please make a new topic in the “Blog” or “General Discussion”, or reply to Topic that’s already talking about keyboard shortcuts on your language’s standard keyboard – and mention that you’d like to propose an addition to this keyboard-shortcuts FAQ. If it looks good, a FAQ moderator can make a copy of your post in this FAQ)

The owner of this reply was changed to @dinkumoil so that the correct user gets credit for its content. At the same time that I replicated that post, I also moved this Topic into the FAQ section, because it’s a useful reference for the available Shortcut Mapper entries._

On all PC keyboards world wide, no matter of which locale, keys have the same scan codes depending on their physical position on the keyboard. The keyboard driver for a certain locale translates them (under Windows) into virtual key codes. That’s what applications see when they read keyboard input. These virtual key codes are translated into the actual glyphs of the characters (at the end of the day a bitmap image) when they are displayed on the screen.

If the keyboard driver supports so called “dead keys” it waits for a second key press to compose them to a resulting character, e.g. all these â,ê,î,ô,û,… letters used in various european languages. This way there are not so much weird key combos to input these characters.

Unfortunately, in the shortcut mapper of Notepad++ all this isn’t taken into account. The person who programmed the key selector has used a hard coded table for the mapping of physical keys to their character representation, which is wrong for most locales. I wasn’t able to figure out yet, which keyboard locale this person used as a basis for the mapping.

This is the mapping table for german keyboards between the key list in Notepad++'s shortcut mapper and the physical keys:

| Npp shortcut mapper |   German Keyboard    |
|                     |---------+------------|
|                     |  solo   | with SHIFT |
|---------------------+---------+------------|
|        ~            |  ö      |     Ö      |
|        -            |  -      |     _      |
|        =            |  +      |     *      |
|        [            |  ß      |     ?      |
|        ]            |  ´ (DK) |     ` (DK) |
|        ;            |  ü      |     Ü      |
|        '            |  ä      |     Ä      |
|        \            |  ^ (DK) |     °      |
|        ,            |  ,      |     ;      |
|        .            |  .      |     :      |
|        /            |  #      |     '      |
|        <>           |  <      |     >      |

(DK) marks dead keys.
