Next book keyboard shortcut

Stampercam · 12-28-2020, 02:04 AM

I've hunted through the keyboard shortcuts (and the forum) but can't find the answer.

When editing metadata is there a keyboard shortcut to move to the next title? I've tried Alt N (given the next at the bottom of the screen) without success.

Can I add keyboard shortcuts to toggle a yes/no custom column?

A yes/no shortcut is Y or N.

Hover your mouse over the buttons to see the Tip
(And Yes, the underscore N is a whole lot confusing)

Try Alt+→ (Next) and Alt+← (Previous)

IIRC they are baked into calibre, but not documented.

U for undefined was also added in one of the recent updates.
