Regarding the keyboard shortcuts, you can do that in the SETTINGS page.  
Have a look at the one here: [SETTINGS](https://silverbullet.md/SETTINGS)

These below are for example the ones i created to change the way Outlines behave:

```auto
shortcuts:
  - command: "Outline: Move Up"
    key: "Ctrl-ArrowUp"
  - command: "Outline: Move Down"
    key: "Ctrl-ArrowDown"
  - command: "Outline: Move Right"
    key: "Ctrl-ArrowRight"
  - command: "Outline: Move Left"
    key: "Ctrl-ArrowLeft"
  - command: "Outline: Fold"
    key: "Ctrl-["
  - command: "Outline: Unfold"
    key: "Ctrl-]"
  - command: "Outline: Toggle Fold"
    key: "Ctrl-Alt-f"

```

| Outline commands | Key shortcut |
| --- | --- |
| Outline: Move Up | Ctrl+ArrowUp |
| Outline: Move Down | Ctrl+ArrowDown |
| Outline: Move Right | Ctrl+ArrowRight |
| Outline: Move Left | Ctrl+ArrowLeft |
| Outline: Fold | Ctrl+[ |
| Outline: Unfold | Ctrl+] |
| Outline: Toggle Fold | Ctrl+Shift+f |

To find the command, just open the `Command Picker` look for the command that you want to change and use the exact command name in the configuration.

thanks for the reponse 🙏  
but the settings page is ready only so I can’t change anything there, how can I change this?

The page @paletochen linked to is on [silverbullet.md](http://silverbullet.md) which is read only. In your own space SETTINGS is editable.
