Close with Escape

Jace edited this page Nov 6, 2026 · 1 revision

Press Escape to close the Little Dia window and go back to the app the link came from.

Why use it

A quick look at a link should take one key to dismiss, the way it does in Little Arc. Turn it off if you use sites where Escape matters, like a dialog or a game, since with this on the page never sees Escape.

Turn it on

It's on by default once Little Dia is on. To change it, open Dia → Settings → Patches → Little Dia and, under Options, use the Close with Escape switch. Or run:

diatweaks enable littleDiaEscapeCloses

Needs

Little Dia. Settings greys out this switch until that's on, and diatweaks enable littleDiaEscapeCloses offers to turn it on too.

FAQ

What if I'm typing an address?

Escape cancels the typing first. Press it again to close the window. In full screen, Escape is left to the page.
