Upgrade StorageFeature request: one-key shortcuts to select annotation tools and other viewer controls
It is currently cumbersome, especially when using a large monitor in portrait mode, to select or change the annotation tool when reading a PDF in the Zotero built-in viewer because this can only be done by clicking on the corresponding button on the toolbar. Zotero should offer single-key accelerators for toggling or switching the selection state of the tools, as Acrobat does (e.g. in Acrobat, hitting "u" selects the highlight tool).
Hovering over any icon in the toolbar should display a tooltip that includes the hotkey in parentheses, e.g. "Highlight Text (h)".
I would suggest the following accelerators:
h: highlight text
u: underline text
n: note annotation
t: add text
a: select area
d: draw
c: activate color dropdown and allow navigation with arrow keys, enter to select color
f: find in document
w: fit page width
0: fit page (height and width)
p: print document
-: zoom out
+: zoom in
o: show/hide outline
s: show/hide annotation list in sidebar
v: show/hide thumbnail view
Thank you for considering this suggestion.
