K is for Keyboard shortcuts in Google Drive

Before I share a long table of some of the short cuts, this is the most important item to remember.

If you want to know the shortcuts in Google Drive type in the following:

Chrome OS and Windows
Shift + /    or    Ctrl + / (Chrome OS, Windows)  
Either one works and they list the exact same list.

For the Mac
⌘ + / 

Here are a few of the most commonly used shortcuts to illustrate.

To create new items in the different programs
[instead of going to New and select the program, which can be a few clicks]

Program	Short cut
Document	Shift + t
Presentation	Shift + p
Spreadsheet	Shift + s
Drawing	Shift + d
Folder	Shift + f
Form	Shift + o

Here are some interesting ones to try out in the Google Drive home page.

Go to navigation panel (folders list)	g then n g then f
Go to items view	g then i
Switch between grid and list in items view	v
Go to details pane	g then d
Go to top of application (Google bar)	g then t
Go to download status	g then a
Go to upload status	g then u
Show or hide details pane	d
Show or hide activity pane	i
