Could we have som Keyboard Shortcuts?


Recommended Posts

Working with Hornbill ESM without a mouse/touchpad is a bit hard. Thankfully searching for links, scrolling through them with Enter, selecting with Esc and selecting with Enter works like a charm. Tabs work great in forms, dates can be selected with arrows. That's all good, but there is still room for improvement.

Could we please have som keyboard shortcuts?

A hot key to select search would be very usefull. Is there one that I can't find?

How about J and K to scroll through comments, and L to like?

Facebook has some good ones (attached) which can be used for inspiration.

There's just the one dedicated shortcut combination at the moment which allows you to quickly navigate to a particular request when you have the ID to hand.

CTRL + SHIFT + F

Hi @Henrik Brattlie, Manag-E,

We've added some basic shortcuts and a platform where applications can add shortcuts to the list.

If you have access to BETA, you should be able to see this working. In Windows type Alt+0 or Ctrl+0 in Mac. That will open the list of available shortcuts.

Also, there are some automated ones for the favourites in the new menu. The first Fav will use the Alt+1, the second in the list will be assigned Alt+2 until 9.

We will continue improving this are but if you have any feedback please let us know.

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi @Henrik Brattlie, Manag-E,

The current release gives a platform for the applications to add their own shortcuts as well as implement some global shortcuts like Alt+C (local filter) or Alt+N (New). So depending on the page you are the it will for example create a new Contact, Organisation or Request.

At the beginning you will see areas that do not implement this shortcuts, but it will slowly with the new builds.

We will also keep on adding more to the list.

Thank you,

Daniel

Hi @Lyonel, yes, is a good idea. Is just a bit early (if you read the my previous comment) but probably once it all works in all our applications we will show it on the Feature Friday!

By the way, we are also working on adding better support for keyboard navigation using the native browser keys like Tab (go from one input to another) or Arrow Up/Down to navigate on drop downs... 

Soon... ;-)

Thanks for the feedback!

Daniel
