For people who prefer to use the keyboard for navigation, the Go menu contains all commands for navigating the hierarchy of your DEVONthink database, all with keyboard shortcuts. Use these commands to go backwards and forwards through your documents, or to move back to the top level of the group hierarchy. Databases Previous Database: Selects the previous database in the Navigate sidebar. Next Database: Selects the next database in the Navigate sidebar. Groups Top Group: Returns you to the top level of the database (also known as the "root"). Enclosing Group: Changes the view to the parent folder of the current group or document. Selected Group: Changes the view to the currently selected group. To Group…: After classifying or moving documents to a new location, use this command to quickly jump to the last used destination. Documents First/Previous/Next/Last Document: Navigates to the first, previous, next, or last document of all documents in the current group. This is useful when you have opened a document in a separate window and want to move to another document in the same group. To Group: Opens a popover where you can search for a group by name. Results are shown as you type. The chosen group from the results will display as the current group. To Document: Opens a popover to quickly navigate to a specific document. To Page/Time: Allows you to jump to a specified page (PDF documents) or time (supported video and audio files). To Link: Opens any detected links in selected text in plain text, rich text, and Markdown documents. Back/Forward: Moves backwards and forwards through all documents/web pages you have visited by following cross-links or Wiki-style links. Previous/Next Instance: Navigates backwards and forwards through all instances of a replicated document. Use these commands to find out where the other instances of a replicated item are. Previous/Next Highlight: Navigates backwards and forward through all highlighted passages within a document, regardless of whether these passages have been highlighted by a search or manually using Format > Highlight. Next Unread Item: Navigates to the next item with an unread status in the current database. Complete News: Move Focus Choose a command, or use its shortcut, to quickly switch focus to different panes of a DEVONthink window. The options available are dependent on the visible UI elements, e.g., if the inspectors aren't visible, the Move Focus to Inspector command will be disabled. to Sidebar: The current sidebar, e.g., the Navigate sidebar will have focus. Note this command requires Settings > General > Interface > Keyboard Navigation to be enabled. to View: The item list will have focus. to Preview: The view/edit pane will have focus. to Inspector: The current inspector will have focus. Favorites: Displays a submenu of items in the Favorites section of the Navigate sidebar. Workspaces Workspaces allow you to save the state of your open databases, as well as the contents and positions of all open windows, so that you can restore them later. This is ideal if you are working with the same set of windows over and over again. Save these windows as a workspace and recall them whenever you need them again. From the Workspaces submenu you can: Add: Saves the currently open windows and open databases as a workspace. Edit: Opens a window that allows you to edit saved workspaces. Click on a workspace name to change it, reorder by dragging, and delete with the - button. Update: Updates an existing workspace to the current state of databases and windows. Choose: Choose a workspace from the list of saved workspaces to load it.
