Quickly switch to next item in list while keeping cursor in same field #210

Open denismaier opened 3 years ago

I sometimes need to make edits in the same field for each item in a list. Is there an easy way to navigate through the list of items and having the cursor in the same field or the same tab? Say, the field "abstract" is currently active. You switch to the next item in the list, and the cursor is again in the field "abstract". Or, you're currently in the tags tab. You switch to the next item in the list, and the focus is again on the tags tab.

Would it possible to add a shortcut for this?

I've also posted this at the Zotero forums, and @dstillman wasn't opposed to this in general, so maybe something might come to Zotero, but I don't know of course.

It seems like a reasonable feature. It would take a little work to get it right when switching between items with different fields.
