App Tip
Big thanks to @lunkmoln for the above tip!
Custom Keyboard Shortcuts
Did you know you can assign (and change) the keyboard shortcuts for Agenda yourself? For example you can re-assign the Quickly Open command a different shortcut by going to the System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts:
This works with any command, and also note that those are ellipses (… or ⌥ ;), not three periods.
