Columns in the tables:

  • Sym: The symbol representing the key
  • Key: The common name of the key
  • CrossPlat?: Whether the symbol is cross-platform. If 'No', then the symbol is unlikely to render properly outside the Apple ecosystem.
  • Alt: An alternate symbol used in some contexts (e.g., legacy)
  • Alt CrossPlat?: Whether the alternate symbol is cross-platform

64 time-saving Hotkeys for Apple Photos. Extensive, exportable, wiki-style reference lists for Keyboard Shortcuts/Hotkeys. I have a large group of scientists and we're evaluating a switch away from the MS Office suite. The inability to quickly enter greek symbols is a big deal for us. In Powerpoint, we have a hotkey setup that when pressed, changes the selected text to the Symbol font. We need this in Keynote and Pages. Apple logo Beats 1 logo; 117 new emojis are now available in iOS 14.2 beta and macOS Big Sur beta, coming to a public release in October or November 2020. Note: shown here are emojis in the latest public (non-beta) release of iOS. See here for new emojis in iOS 14.2 beta. Emojis from Apple iOS 13.3 are displayed below. Apple support page for Mac keyboard shortcuts That means things like cut, copy and paste can all be done from your keyboard, no pop up menus needed, and that goes for any Bluetooth keyboard, not.

Modifiers

Apple Hotkey Symbols Shortcuts

When a key combination is displayed, the modifiers are written in the order presented here. For example, Control + Option + Shift + Command + Q would be written as ⌃⌥⇧⌘Q.

SymKeyCrossPlat?AltAlt CrossPlat?
ControlYes
OptionYes
ShiftYes
CommandYesNo

The Command key was formerly represented by an Apple logo. The Apple logo is one fo the few symbols here that can be easily typed with a typical keyboard layout: ⌥⇧K

Hotkey

There is also a Fn modifier on modern Mac keyboards. Typically this isn't seen in keyboard shortcuts because it's only used to access keys F1 through F20. However, it can technically be combined with Control plus one other key to get a unique legacy combination. Each of these Fn + Control combinations maps to a character in Unicode's U+F700 to U+F7FF private use range. Some programs will erroneously print these characters upon receiving such a combination. With system Mac fonts, these characters lack visible glyphs, and are for internal use only. Quote from ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/APPLE/CORPCHAR.TXT:

NeXT's OpenStep reserved corporate characters in the range 0xF700 to0xF8FF for transient use as keyboard function keys. The ones actuallyassigned in NextStep are 0xF700-0xF747, as follows. These are stillused in the Mac OS X AppKit frameworks. Note that there is no glyphassociated with these, and they are not mapped or used by the Mac OSText Encoding Converter.

The alternate eject symbol,  (U+F804), is from a Unicode private use region. Apple designates it for use with mapping to/from the Mac OS Keyboard encoding. Ideally, the official Unicode variant should be used instead, as it will be compatible with fonts on other platforms. Quote from ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/APPLE/CORPCHAR.TXT:

The following (11) are for mapping the Mac OS Keyboard and Mac OS Koreanencodings (for Mac OS Korean also see 0xF83D, 0xF840-0xF84F).

Capture one pro 9 3. Some entries are missing key names; these don't map to physical keys.

LTR indicates usage with left-to-right languages: that means text flows from left to right, such as in most Western languages. RTL indicates the opposite. Many keyboards have both Delete Left and Delete Right, regardless of text direction.

ISO indicates a symbol designated by an ISO standard. ISO standard symbols aren't necessarily used by Mac.

Symbols composed of multiple Unicode characters are special in that they are treated as a single character on Mac, despite appearing as multiple symbols. For most of the characters, this grouping is controlled by the first character, which is a Unicode private use character that is invisible on Mac. The others use standard Unicode combining techniques. Quote from ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/APPLE/KEYBOARD.TXT:

The block of 32 characters 0xF860-0xF87F is for transcoding hints.These are used in combination with standard Unicode characters to forcethem to be treated in a special way for mapping to other encodings;they have no other effect.

I think it would be a major mistake to continue using that sort of procedure, where you count on a special font to map latin characters to greek. The international standard, supported by OS X for nearly 10 years now, is to use Unicode greek instead. There is no guarantee going forward that others will see greek rather than latin when you use the old font switching technology.
You should should be able to set up whatever shortcuts you want to produce Unicode Greek characters in Pages/Keynote > Preferences > Autocorrection > Symbol and Text Substitution.
You can also use Favorites in the Character Viewer.
