Is there keyboard shortcut to deselect text on a mac?

To select all text in Chrome or other apps I can use:

Command+a

From a web search I found this potential shortcut to deselect text:

Command+Shift+a

Sadly that doesn't work across all apps.

Is there a keyboard shortcut that can deselect text after I've selected all text with Command+a ?


Solution 1:

It is app specific as to whether there is a keyboard shortcut for deselecting text.

The finder uses: Command + Option + A, while Pages uses Command + Shift + A, while Notes, Reminder, and Safari don't have an option.
