== Recoll GUI keyboard navigation
|
|
|
|
Using Recoll without the mouse is not completely straightforward, but it is
|
|
mostly feasible. Here follows a description of the usable shortcuts.
|
|
|
|
=== Anywhere
|
|
|
|
`Ctrl+q` should exit Recoll from anywhere.
|
|
|
|
=== Main window and result list ===
|
|
|
|
When Recoll starts up, the focus is in the simple search entry. The main
|
|
window tab order is as follows:
|
|
|
|
* Clear
|
|
* Search
|
|
* Search type combo
|
|
* Search entry (Initial focus)
|
|
* Result list (scrolling etc)
|
|
* Result list 1st link
|
|
* Result list next links...
|
|
* Back to Clear
|
|
|
|
Each result list entry has 3 links: the icon link is not active, but its
|
|
value is the URL, so that it can be dragged and dropped to another
|
|
application. The 2 other links are _Preview_ and _Open_ and can be
|
|
activated by typing _Enter_.
|
|
|
|
Typing _Ctrl+Shift+s_ anywhere in the main window should return the focus to the search entry. So will _Ctrl+l_ in future versions (for compatibility with WEB browser usage).
|
|
|
|
For pure keyboard usage, you can improve this by:
|
|
|
|
- Disabling the icon link: use _Preferences->GUI configuration->Result
|
|
List->Edit result paragraph_ and remove the `<a href='%U'>` and `</a>`
|
|
around the `<img...>` tag.
|
|
- Making the active link more visible by adding the following code to the
|
|
result page HTML header insert (same preferences tab). Feel free to
|
|
adjust the color :=) :
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
<style type="text/css">
|
|
a:focus {background-color: red;}
|
|
</style>
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
=== Result table
|
|
|
|
The same _Ctrl+Shift+s_ will return the focus to the search entry when
|
|
working with the result table.
|
|
|
|
_Ctrl+r_ will move the focus from the entry to the spreadsheet. When in
|
|
there the arrow keys will navigate the lines.
|
|
|
|
When a line is selected:
|
|
|
|
* _Ctrl+o_ will _Open_ the document.
|
|
* _Ctrl+Shift+o_ will _Open_ the document and exit Recoll.
|
|
* _Ctrl+d_ (detail) will start a _Preview_
|
|
|
|
_Esc_ will deselect the current line so that mouse hovering will work again.
