Keyboard shortcuts
The NeoDownloader window has no menu bar to list its keys, so they are collected here.
The window
| Keys | What it does |
|---|---|
| F11 | Turns full screen on and off |
| Ctrl + + | Makes everything bigger |
| Ctrl + − | Makes everything smaller |
| Ctrl + 0 | Returns to the normal size |
| F5 or Ctrl + R | Reloads the window |
| Ctrl + Shift + R | Reloads the window without the cache - for when it shows something out of date |
| F12 or Ctrl + Shift + I | Opens the developer tools - needed only when support asks what they show; see Reporting a problem |
Reloading only redraws the window: downloads carry on.
Projects and files
| Keys | What it does |
|---|---|
| / | On the Files tab, takes you to Search by name |
| Esc | Clears the search box you are typing in |
| Enter | Opens the selected file, when one file is selected |
| Ctrl + click | Adds a file to the selection, or takes it out |
| Shift + click | Selects every file from the last one you clicked without Shift to this one |
A double-click opens a file; on a project card, it opens the project's Properties window.
The border between the list of projects and the open project can be dragged. Click it, and ← and → move it; a double-click puts it back at the usual width.
The viewer
A picture, a video, a sound file, a PDF or a text file you open on the Files tab is shown over the whole window.
| Keys | What it does |
|---|---|
| → | Shows the next file |
| ← | Shows the previous file |
| Esc | Closes the viewer |
At the last file, → stops rather than starting again from the first.
Dialogs and fields
- Esc closes the dialog on top. When one dialog is open over another, only the upper one closes.
- In New project, Enter in the address field does what Next does. Once you click Add more addresses, the field takes one address per line, and Enter starts a new line.
- When you add a tag, Enter adds it and Esc cancels.
- In the File properties window, Enter in Name renames the file.
The usual editing keys - Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V, Ctrl + X, Ctrl + A, Ctrl + Z - work in every field.
