Shortcuts #14

It would be great if you could operate MTB with keyboard shortcuts. At least calling up the information would be missing here. The MTB window can then be closed with CMD-W.

I like this idea but Apple's MailKit API is very limiting and might be difficult if not impossible to implement as the API doesn't tell me which message is selected. Could be possible perhaps with the Accessibility APIs.

Alternatively, there is the option of displaying the tracker info inline, in a banner, on the message panel. I was toying around with this in older versions of MailTrackerBlocker.

Would you prefer this?

I think that's good. Maybe you can set a switch in the settings to decide whether you want the "X" or the detailed info in the mail. Then there would be something for everyone :-) I'm primarily interested in whether there was a tractor in the mail or not. Details would be of secondary importance to me - they are enough in the app.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into that.

Also just so you're aware and because it's not obvious, right now, if you tap on the ⓧ, a popup with all the detailed tracking info will appear.

1.1.3 released with the banner. Hope it helps!

Let me close this for now otherwise, just because of the API limitations mentioned above

Hey Aaron, thank you for this quick workaround. For me this helps!
