Shortcuts

Tips​

  • Ctrl + click bookmark title = open url in new tab.
  • Unselect all nodes by 'Escape'.
  • Select a list of nodes with 'Shift' on checkbox.
  • Right click on a checkbox to select it exclusively.
  • Select all the nodes in a subfolder by click the left edge of that openned folder.
  • Remove marks of trash with 'normalize', or just drag them out of trash folder.
  • Click a node's icon to edit/select it.
  • Move bookmarks with [merge].
  • Drop nodes into nav buttons ([home], [trash], [top]...).
  • If you want to show the title of a bookmark in top bar you can put '!' or '*' in front of its title.
  • Drop a bookmark node on the blank area in nav page to reveal it or to set it as a secondary topbar if it is a folder.
  • The search box supports javascript regular expressions (regex). We add some keywords for search, and they can be generated by search panel.
  • Move selected nodes by dragging the sum avatar of the selected nodes

Vi keyboard​

vi mode

The vi mode is disabled by default. Once it is activated, the following commands will take effect.

The "Mode keys" only work in nav page. The manager page is always in "normal mode", which means if you press "D" then the selected nodes will be removed.

Please do NOT turn on the vi mode if you are not familiar with VI.
