WePROXA ships with keyboard shortcuts for every common action so you can drive the app without leaving the keyboard. Shortcuts use ⌘ on macOS and Ctrl on Windows unless noted.
The Settings → Keyboard Shortcuts screen lists the most common shortcuts. This guide also includes tool and editor shortcuts that are not shown in that screen.

⌘ S / Ctrl + S |

After a rule saves successfully, the action button briefly changes to a saved confirmation so you can keep editing without losing track of the last save.

Select only that type |

| Toolbar filter icon |

| Add to Filters entry in the request context menu |

Replace the current query — see Advanced Filtering |
- Most shortcuts also appear in the app menu bar, so you can discover them contextually.
- Shortcuts are disabled while typing in editors, inputs, or dialogs — so the editor’s own find shortcut still opens Monaco’s find widget.
