Just as there's no Delete key on Chromebook keyboards, there's no Page Up, Page Down, Home, or End keys, but there are Chrome shortcuts to replace them all if you don't want to scroll using the trackpad or touchscreen. On other platforms like Windows, the shortcut is Shift + Delete, but since Chromebook keyboards don't have a Delete key - the shortcut Alt + Backspace functions as the Delete key - that shortcut shifts to Alt + Shift + Backspace.
It happens to the best of us - I do it at least three times a week myself - and the shortcut I find myself forgetting and needing the most out of this list is the shortcut for deleting these mistakes from Chrome's suggested URLs in the Omnibox. We all have those moments where we mistype URLs for our most used websites. As your cursor moves around the screen, that portion of the screen will light up while the rest of the screen darks, helping you be sure of which portion of the screen you're screenshotting.Īlt + Shift + Backspace Delete unwanted URL suggestions
Click on the window you wish to screenshot.Screenshots are important for a lot of reasons, and while the screenshot shortcut for Chrome OS - Alt + ]] - is one you'll use more often, being able to specifically screenshot your window rather than the whole screen can be exceedingly helpful. This Alt/number combo only works from 1-8 Alt + 9 opens the right-most icon on your dock. Notice that Hangouts isn't actually a pinned app - that's what that faint little grey line between Messages and Hangouts delineates - so I could use this skill to open two more apps if I have them open.

Alt + 4 to open Calendar Clock - a Chrome app that pulls up a calendar for easy reference, because I miss the one that you'd get when you clicked on the time on a Windows laptop.Alt + 1 to open the Files app - the Files app also has a dedicated shortcut of Alt + Shift + m if you don't have the Files app pinned to the dock.
