Paletro - Add a Command Palette to Any App

Paletro, by appmakes.io, is a $6.99 utility that gives you a command palette in any app. Large, multifunction apps with many commands like VScode, Sublime Text or Obsidian can have dozens of menu commands and good luck to the intrepid user who tries to remember them all. That's why those apps have a command palette that lets you summon an alphabetical list to effectively browse for the command you're looking for. Paletro brings that functionality to any app. Using the default short cut of โ‡งโŒ˜P, you can bring up an alphabetized list of the app you're in. It differs from apps like MenuWhere that allow you to browse the traditional hierchical menu structure in that you don't need to know where the command is located, you just need to know the name of it. Of course, nothing prevents you from using both utilities in tandem.

You can get a 14-day free trial when you download the app from the developer's website. You can also get Paletro if you are a Setapp subscriber.ย
