Advanced event viewer keyboard shortcuts

Posted by By Cory Duncan on May 18, 2017

Today we’re excited to release two new keyboard shortcuts within the event viewer:

Highlight and link to multiple events

When a series of events is relevant, it can be useful to share those events with teammates. This is now possible.

Holding Shift will put the event viewer into “selection mode.” While holding down Shift:

  • Start a selection by clicking the button next to an event.
  • Select a range by clicking a selection button above or below an existing selected event.

Event selection

The browser URL will update to indicate which events are selected. From there it’s as easy as copying and pasting the link. Clear a selection by pressing Esc.

Retain search query when clicking

Extending the idea of flexible context to the entire event viewer, holding Alt while clicking a link will retain (instead of replace) the current search query. This works for orange and blue context links as well as click-to-search.

Retain search query

To see these and all other keyboard shortcuts, press ? while in the event viewer. Try out the new shortcuts and as always, let us know if we can do better. Enjoy!
