Quick Access

Quick Access is the fastest way to open a file: a search palette that drops over the workspace, finds files by name as you type, and opens your pick on Enter . If you know roughly what a file is called, it beats clicking through the file tree every time.

The Quick Access palette open over the workspace with results for a typed query

Open it

  • Press ⌘P (macOS) or Ctrl+P (Windows/Linux) — it works from anywhere in Studio.

  • Or click the Search files… field in the middle of the toolbar.

Press Esc or click outside the palette to dismiss it.

What it finds

With a project open, type any part of a filename and Quick Access searches the whole project's documents — pages, components, content, and data files alike. Each result shows the filename and the folder it lives in.

Before you type anything, the palette lists your recently opened files, so reopening the file you just closed is ⌘P , Enter .

With no project open, the palette lists your recent projects instead — pick one to reopen it. It never mixes the two: with a project open you only ever see that project's files.

Keyboard controls

  • and move through the results.

  • Enter opens the highlighted result in a tab.

  • Esc closes the palette.

The mouse works too — click any row to open it.
