I’m a new user, and I was putting my tasks in to Tracks when I hit “T” on the keyboard in the date field and it filled in today… I can’t find a list of any other keyboard shortcuts anywhere, does anyone know them off the top of their head?

Thanks!

for the date fields you can see the shortcuts in the tooltip

For most menu items there are acceskeys set. But depending on your browser you can use alt or alt-shift (iirc). The key is also in the tooltip of the menu

I’m also missing more keyboard shortcut options. Are there any plans on expanding the keyboard shortcuts?

This could be implemented the “Gmail-way” by having shortcuts for navigating not only the top menu items, but also navigating and acting on items / lists within the various menus.

As for documenting the keyboard shortcuts, this could also be done like Gmail by having a SHIFT+? shortcut.

Disregarding any additional keyboard shortcuts for the moment, is there any place where all the existing keyboard shortcuts are listed?  As evidenced by Reactor5’s experience, they’re not limited to the menu items.

That said, it would be nice to have simple j-k navigation, s to star, x to mark complete, and e to edit.

Here is a handy reference of tracks shortcut keys:

Alt+Shift+t - Home
Alt+Shift+p - Projects
Alt+Shift+k - Tickler
Alt+Shift+c - Contexts

Alt+Shift+d - Completed Tasks
Alt+Shift+r - Manage recurring actions
Alt+Shift+l - Calendar of due actions
Alt+Shift+s - Show/Hide Notes
Alt+Shift+o - Show all notes

Alt+Shift+u - Preferences
Alt+Shift+i - Import and export data

Alt+Shift+n - Show/Hide Form (Add Action/Project/Context)
