Dashboards - related hotkeys

[A. W.]

I was looking on how to access a dashboard or the dashboard-management with a hotkey.

But did not find an option for it.

Did i miss something or is this still on the implementation roadmap?

Other question while asking.. is my idea to integrate the dashboard feature as the main viewing feature for the main canvas in the middle of the application window in consideration :)?

btw - again - all the best for the crazy situation with the war.

hope all is at least somehow well..

thx-Alexander

In View-> Manage Dashboards you can assign a hotkey:

We will consider your suggestion, thanks for sharing it!

And thank you for your kind support.

ok - i did miss something ;). thx 

kind of obvious, yet a bit confusing as the hotkeys are intermixing related to settings with:

- "normal hotkeys" - via the settings dialog

- "special hotkeys" - via special venue like in this case

- "dialog hotkey" - via built in windows dialog "ALT"-hotkeys

... but you get there somehow ;)

-- related to "main-canvas-integration of "multi-view layouts for working windows" --

As i assigned the hotkey to the dashboards.. there is a benefit in having the option to be able to open several "multi-views with layouts", i.e. dashboards.

If moved to the main canvas the access would change - perhaps more consistent ;) - to:

- open new windows as usual - F3

- assign (dashboardy) layout via hotkey to switch between welldefined layouts - then same in new and main view-canvas

- manage (dashboardy multi-layouts) view - ALT-F3

.... smoothly integrated into overall app concept.

.. just a thought ;).

btw - i tiny bit: sorting of dashboards in the "manage dashboards" dialog either by name or by selected column would be great...

interesting what dashboards can be used for - in various scenarios - while using MLO.

having a dashboardy side window for navigating all tasks is an interesting usage scenario.

then the idea comes up... would it make even sense to have the option to display 1 singular task in a separate window.

And then have many of them open - as kind of sticky notes ;).

-

in summary i love MLO and the open and flexible concepts it is built upon.

please continue the great work :)...
