Shortcuts for top and bottom of library window

notdog · 03-03-2021, 01:04 PM

I've looked all over for keyboard shortcuts to go to the top and bottom of the main library window. Do they exist? I'm on a Mac laptop. I can go up and down a page at a time with the fn + up/down arrow, and I can jump left or right with fn and those arrows, but nothing seems to take me to the top and bottom.

On Windows it's Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End, unless you're in cover grid view, then it's just Home and End. Not sure what key Ctrl would be on Mac.

That's what it might be on a Mac extended keyboard. On a Mac laptop without Home and End keys you'd ordinarily mimic Home and End with the special fn key. Home might be fn + left arrow, for example. In Calibre that key combo will take you to the left side of the current row. So I wondered if that might be some way to assign other keystrokes as an alternative. I haven't spotted it yet.

Long shot: try cmd+fn+left arrow for top of list, and cmd+fn+right arrow for bottom of list.

AFAIK there's no customisable shortcut for those actions.

OMG, that's it! How'd I miss that?

Thanks, BetterRed!
