Keyboard shortcut for selecting source to add to citation

Hi, is there a keyboard shortcut for going through the steps of adding a citation in word (for mac)?

I have a keyboard shortcut set up for adding a citation, and when the Zotero menu shows up, the cursor is conveniently in the search box. Here it would be really convenient to be able to use the tab key to move to the list of sources that match the search, and then on to the page box and the insert with enter.

Is there a way to do this that I haven't figured out yet?
  • Are you using the classic add citation dialog? In the default, quick format dialog, you can simply select search results with the arrows and enter.
  • Yes, the classic one. I got it to work now, the problem was that when I used the tab key to move around the dialogue box, it didn't highlight anything when it moved to the list of search resulta so I didn't realise it was there until I tried using the arrow keys :) Now it works great, thanks :D
