More Keyboard Shortcuts (for Changing Item Type and Copying Link to Item)
londonl
I lose a lot of time by hitting the
CTRL+'
command and then using my mouse
to navigate the menu to switch from paragraph mode and back into bullet mode.I also really like linking / not duplicating data so that people always have one source of truth and references back to that source. However, doing backlinks, again, requires me to use the mouse, which is slow and often times I end up copying the link for the wrong item.
More keyboard shortcuts to address these would be great. (These could even be contextual menu shortcuts: e.g. if I press
CTRL+'
to bring up the menu, I can then press C
to copy a link to the item, or S
to change the style of the item. Something like that.)Log In

Hi there, could you please elaborate more on this request? the formatting menu already support navigation by keyboard without the use of a mouse. Are you referral to instead of using the keyboard you only want to use a single letter within that menu to access the feature? Similar to the Cmd + / menu?

ryantaskade Thank you for the follow-up! I actually didn't realize that the menu could be navigated with arrow keys, but unfortunately using the arrow keys is even slower for me than moving to the mouse.
I'm a programmer so I'm very used to keeping my hands just on the keyboard in typing position, so moving my hands away to use the mouse or arrow keys seems slow to me.
The solution of a single letter within that menu to access the feature sounds like exactly what I want.
