EzyTimerThe live-show cheat sheet.
A fast reference for EzyTimer keyboard shortcuts, show-control buttons, safety actions, overlay controls, and reporting tools. Keep this open during rehearsal until the muscle memory lands.
Keyboard
| Pause / resume live speaker | Space |
| Start next speaker | N |
| Edit live speaker | E |
| Open display window | D |
| Toggle fullscreen | F |
| Hide / show finished speakers | H |
| Focus message bar | M |

Show controls
Undo last action, open the full-screen timer, run pre-show Show Ready, open the Companion Deck helper, generate a timing report, and enter standby controller (Backup) mode.
Safety cues
Use Blackout for audience screens, Flash to get attention, Time of day for wall-clock mode, Show lock after rehearsal, and save support evidence with Diagnostics.
Presenter overlay
Show/hide the overlay, resize small/medium/large, move to a corner or nudge into place, and use the Click-through lock to prevent accidental clicks.
Reports
Copy the post-event report, print or save PDF, download report HTML, and use Export CSV for the client after the show.
Remote surfaces
iPad / phone controller, Zoom / Teams camera, Stream Deck / Companion, and the show-day runbook.
Operator rule
Shortcuts work whenever your cursor is not in a text field. While typing, use Esc to cancel and Enter to send/confirm.
Before doors open, run Show Ready and keep the mouse/keyboard fallback within reach in case a button surface misbehaves mid-show.
