Section navigation (G-sequences)

Frihet uses a G-sequence system: press G, then within 800ms press a second key.

How they work

1. Press G (a visual indicator appears)
2. Within 800ms, press the second key
3. Frihet takes you to that section

Example: to go to the Dashboard, press G and then D quickly.

G-sequence reference

Shortcut	Section
G → D	Dashboard — income, expenses, upcoming invoices
G → F	Invoices — all your invoices and issued quotes
G → Q	Quotes — quotes not yet converted to invoices
G → E	Expenses — expense log and categorization
G → P	Products — your product and service catalog
G → T	Tax Calendar — tax deadlines (quarterly, annual)
G → C	Contacts — client, vendor, and staff management
G → S	Settings — company configuration, taxes, integrations

Inside the Command Palette (Cmd+K)

Open Cmd+K and start typing:

• new invoice — Create a new invoice

Important notes

Shortcuts are disabled while you type

If you're inside a text field (client name, description, etc.), shortcuts are disabled:

• Cmd+K inside an input still opens Cmd+K but doesn't reopen the palette
• G sequences don't respond inside fields

Fix: Press Esc to exit the field, then use the shortcut.

G-sequences have a timeout

You have 800ms from pressing G to press the second key. If you exceed that, G cancels.

This is intentional: it lets you type "Google Analytics" without accidents — only fast Ga opens Analytics.

Customize shortcuts

Some shortcuts are standard (Cmd+K, Cmd+S). Navigation shortcuts (G-sequences) can be customized from Settings > Keyboard Shortcuts.
