Useful link to MLO Shortcuts - (better than the MLO's own Help pages) - Wanna help maintain this?

[John Smith]

Hi

1. If you are a new user of MLO I suggest you bookmark this page:
http://www.shortcutworld.com/en/win/MyLifeOrganized.html

2. Wanna help me maintain it?
I would like to add some more hotkeys to that page - however I'm now not 100% sure of what the defaults are!
e.g.
Ctrl/Shift/S ==> Star on/off
Ctrl/PgUp   ==> Previous tab
Ctrl/PgDown  ==> Next tab
Alt/S ==> Start date
Ctrl/H  ==> Hightlight task
Ctrl/Shift/M ==> Rapid Task Entry dialog box
Ctrl/Shift/Insert ==> New Folder

- Have I got the above correct?
- What have I missed out?
- Wanna help edit it?

BACKGROUND
Given how woefully inadequate MLO's own help pages are for describing MLO Keyboard shortcuts (poorly structured, and missing SEVERAL important shortcuts), I thought this topic needed its own thread
I have only just found the above link and it might help new users of MLO


P.S.
I am aware that it is a repeat of Andrei Bacean's link in this thread below, but I feel that it needs to be given more prominence!

Maybe it would be good if MLO had a feature to generate a text report of all its own keyboard shortcuts. I already have customized several. XYplorer lets you do this. You can generate a cheat sheet. It's nice.

Cool wiki by the way!

[Andrei Bacean]

Good idea.

[John Smith]

PS. What are all these up and down arrows that have appeared?
I assume that they are for voting things up and down - but have they always been there? And how do they work?
e.g. if I vote +1 on all three replies what, if any, effect does it have?

(Bump!)

Okay if nobody stops me I shall attempt to add the following keyboard short cuts to 

Ctrl/Shift/S ==> Star on/off 

Ctrl/PgUp   ==> Previous tab

Ctrl/PgDown  ==> Next tab

Alt/S ==> Start date

Ctrl/H  ==> Hightlight task 

Ctrl/Shift/M ==> Rapid Task Entry dialog box

Ctrl/Shift/Insert ==> New Folder

http://www.shortcutworld.com/en/win/MyLifeOrganized.html

Can anyone suggest any more?

Hi John, I also support this idea.

Here is another suggestion:

Ctrl+l and Ctrl+shift+l to toggle the quick filter.

[Andrei Bacean]

In the above post, the hotkeys are
Ctrl+L and Ctrl+Shift+L
I changed to uppercase to not confuse

[Andrei Bacean]

I added the above hotkeys and also changed the hide in todo hotkey to Ctrl+e
changes are attached

John, i have checked the shortcuts and have some comments, see below:

Ctrl/Shift/S ==> Star on/off

Ctrl/PgUp   ==> Previous tab

Ctrl/PgDown  ==> Next tab

Alt/S ==> Start date
I guess we shall write more in the description, like this: Set Start Date for a task. If the task had no date, then Today will be used. John, you are a native English speaker, so please change the text as you think it's correct. Thanks.

Ctrl/H  ==> Hightlight task

Ctrl/Shift/M ==> Rapid Task Entry dialog box

Ctrl/Shift/Insert ==> New Sibling Folder

Maybe it's not worth to specify, what do you think?

OK, I have added Ctrl L and called it "Quick filter text box" 

But what does Ctrl+Shift+L do? (It appears to do nothing on my MLO!)

> Ctrl/Shift/Insert ==> New Sibling Folder

Yes although extremely not useful, it is crucial for ALL default hotkeys to be added as this will affect any new things we add.

For this reason I have added it.

NOTE: I have tried to put everything into some sort of alphabetical order. It's a bit messy whatever you do, but it was the most rational thing I could think of. And if you are checking to see what hotkeys have already been used it should help.

PS. 

Can anyone tell me what [Alt]+[A] does?   It had the text "Toggle context Filter selector / To-Do list" opposite it.

However it does nothing on my MLO so for now I have simply removed it.

General note:

I don't have strong feelings about the contents of the page in question
(http://www.shortcutworld.com/en/win/MyLifeOrganized.html) other than
a) It needs to be kept up-to-date

b) the contents need to be as complete/comprehensive as possible.

Anyone feel free to add to the page as you see fit   :)

[John Smith]

Bump?

Please can someone tell me what "Alt/A" does - or at least is supposed to do!
In my Tools > Options > Hotkeys > (scroll down by 3 screenfuls) it says: "Toggle Context Filter/To-Do"

However I can't get it do anything whatsoever !

Is this a bug? Or have MLO formally abandoned that that functionality? Or am I missing something?

J

[John Smith]

PS  What about Alt/Y ?

MLO help says "Toggle hide in todo" but I can't get it to have any affect.   :^/

What do you think of my heatmap suggestion?
