Keyboard Shortcuts

RussIrvine

Is there a central list of keyboard shortcuts in use within Diarium?

Finding out what they are by accident is fun but much easier and shorter to be able to just look it up.😁

Otherwise what is the shortcut for Strikethrough?

Thanks.

Diarium version: 2.9.29
OS + version: A12, A7

There is no list for shortcuts but you can hover the buttons to see if there is a shortcut for it.
Please join this discussion regarding the strikethrough shortcut.

timo How about a help page listing the keyboard shortcuts? It shouldn't take long to bang out a list. 🙂

You say hover works, but I don't see any keyboard shortcuts in tooltips, and no tooltips at all in the sidebar. So the only way to discover sidebar navigation shortcuts, as far as I can tell, is to stumble upon them through trial and error. If I wasn't such a determined keyboard commando, I would never have found out that CTRL+T takes you to Timeline, and CTRL+OPT+T takes you to Tags — but only if the sidebar already has focus. So there's actually no app-wide shortcut for navigating to these areas. It's also counter-intuitive for Mac users that these shortcuts remain CTRL combinations instead of CMD combinations.

It would be nice to have a list of shortcuts. For some reason, the hover method doesn't work for me on Windows anymore. It did once, when I found Ctrl-T added a tag, which I've been using ever since. Now looking for the shortcut for Location, if there is one. TIA

This comment of mine refers to the Windows app, not the Mac app. I will investigate keyboard support for the Mac app soon. The sidebar shortcuts aren't implemented by me, they are implicitly set up by the MacOS system

CTRL+T for Timeline and CTRL+OPT+T for Tags weren't implemented by you?
That's really weird, especially since Mac never uses CTRL natively, except as a modifier for CMD — there are no native CTRL+__ keyboard shortcuts in Mac.
If you didn't create those, maybe they're a default function of your development software?

Anyway, a Help page listing shortcuts would be extremely helpful nonetheless.

I would like to see implemented Ctrl+N as shortcut for a new message.

Antony Oh, we have a whole other thread about that kind of thing. 🙂
