Hi team, I hope this will be obvious. I've been burned by this SO many times. If you do anything that opens a small menu (pop-up), if you tap the ESC key, it should close that menu. Right now, it closes everything. Steps to reproduce (one example): Open a task view Create a subtask Click the 3 dots next to the subtask. A menu appears as a pop-up Tap the ESC key to close that menu Expected behavior: the menu closes Actual behavior: the entire task view closes and you have to re-open everything. I suspect it's a principle of UX/UI: when you close/exit something via shortcut, it has to exit/close the screen.modal that is the "highest" in the hierarchy, the element that is the "closest" to the eyes of the user. Big thanks for taking a minute to consider it! Kevin

It'd be good to have more robust keyboard shortcuts, so it's easier to navigate and get around in the main windows, as well as within tasks and subtasks. For instance: Going straight to comments section from within a task/subtask Going back to main task when in a subtask Tabbing through sections of a task Quick complete task Move to next status, previous status in a task These are just a few, to make it less trackpad/mouse-heavy!

Make Quick Create task to appear as a separate window anywhere in system without opening the main ClickUp window

Apparently Ctrl+Shift+C should be binded to both showing/hiding doc stats and to starting/ending an inline-code section in text-editor. Pressing Ctrl+Shift+C while typing in editor only shows/hides the doc stats without doing anything pertaining to formatting text as inline-code. Either rebind doc stats to a different shortcut key or at least make it do both at the same time.

It'd be great to be able to set a default List, Assignee and Due Date for new tasks when using hot keys (Especially if we could build custom hot keys). Most of the time, I'm creating a task for myself. Would be great if I could have it automatically be set to me, due today, and in my "Personal Tasks" list. Then I could adjust with slash commands if needed.

Could there be a way to enable horizontal scrolling similar to Miro, using (Shift + mouse scroll), and also using the arrow keys on the whiteboard? This would greatly facilitate the use of larger whiteboards. For example, Ctrl + scroll is already used for zooming.

In most othter programs ctrl+shift+arrow makes you select text word by word (not caracter by caracter), and that is very incorporated in my way of working (and probably many others too) '. In Clickup how ever, when editing a description, ctrl+shift+arrow results in shifting between tasks. That is very annoying. Pls. find another way to shift between tasks.

seems like an obvious shortcut

Right now you can add text in a table cell, highlight it, and then turn it into a task/subpage but you can't access / commands from the table cell to do that directly. It is not an intuitive and consistent experience from the rest of ClickUp where everything is controlled through / commands.

We did this I think around 100 times a day and it's not a big button on task to click. It would be awesome if there's a shortcut/command that can remove the currect opening task from tray please!!
