Newbie Question: How do I get the keyboard focus back to the list in the center of the page?

Hi 

Newbie Question: How do I get the keyboard focus back to the main list?

e.g. If I am going through all my Actions to see which ones dont yet have a Context, I can filter on Contexts of "(none").
So then click on one of the Actions listed and then go to the Properties window and enter a Context (e.g. "@Office;". Now, when I press Enter, the Action disappears from the list in the middle of the page.

How do I now select the next Action in the list, other then by using my mouse? 

Surely there is a hotkey to bring keyboard focus back to the middle area (i.e. the list) in the main body of the page, no?

Thanx

Hi, John. I don’t see a hotkey specifically for returning focus to the center panel. (I’m looking in the list of hotkeys at Tools>Options>General>Hotkeys). If I wanted to do this without using a mouse I would use Ctrl-PgDn followed by Ctrl-PgUp. This shifts the view to the next tab and then back again, and shifts the view to the center in the process.

Yuk. That's rather messy - and it doesnt toggle back to where you came from.

I mean if I'm editing properties (tags) I'd need to hit Control/Up then Control/Down and to get back I'd need to hit Alt/2.

But I guess it will have to do. Good enough I guess.

Thanks

Hello John and Dwight,

Just playing catch-up after quite a lot of travelling and long hours.

For the record, you can toggle focus between the outline and the note with Alt-1.  If your focus is in another field (eg due date), pressing Alt-1 will take you back to the task in the central pane.  There are certain fields (can't remember which) where, if you're in the middle of editing, then you have to press Alt-1 twice - once to close editing and a second time to switch between the outline and the notes panes.

Hope that helps,

Stéphane
