NearMirror supports keyboard shortcuts while the mirror window is focused. Most shortcuts use a modifier key (shown as MOD below).
Modifier Key
The default modifier key depends on your operating system:
- macOS — Right Alt (
⌥)
- Windows / Linux — Right Alt or Left Super (Windows key)
You can change the modifier key in Input Settings → Shortcut Mod.
