Feature request - browser back button / keystroke #22

Open frederickjh opened 8 years ago

frederickjh commented 8 years ago

Hi!

Currently when clicking on a link in Remarkable it will be opened in the Preview pane. However it is unclear to me how to the preview of the document I am editing back in the preview pane. I do not find a back button or command to do this. I use this for checking the links in my documents.

My current workaround is to click the undo button, however this also undoes the last edit. I then need to click the redo button.

I also noted that Ctrl+z works for undo but Ctrl+y does not work for redo.

It would be good if this is implemented to use the standard web browser navigation shortcut keys. Thanks for your consideration of this feature! Frederick

Web Browser Navigation shortcut keystrokes

Alt+Left Arrow, Backspace – Back.

Alt+Right Arrow, Shift+Backspace – Forward.

@frederickjh To get back to your preview, go to _View_, turn off _Live Preview_ and turn it on again.

I wish there was a way to open the links in the browser.

Hi @krikmo! I have since found it is even easier than this. Just edit the text and the preview returns. Just add a space then delete it if you not need to make an edit.

If you want to view the links in a browser just select:

View > Preview Externally

Then the links will be open in the browser. I know it is not the same as what you want but it works for now.

So obvious and so easy, thank you!

My problem with the Preview Externally option is that the page doesn't update its content even when I save the source. My solution is copying the link and pasting it in the browser. Not a big deal.
