Switch to "Flow" when clicking the Graph button in the bottom bar when you have the Graph open

[sambouwer]

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND

I often want to quickly access the linked Objects to the Object I’ve open. Right now, I click the Graph icon on the bottom bar, and then at the top of the page click the Flow tab.

HOW COULD IT BE DONE

If you have the Graph open (after clicking the Graph icon on the bottom bar), it would be nice that the Flow tab would be selected if you click that same button again.

REAL WORLD USE CASES

I don’t want to move my mouse ALL THE WAY across the screen (4k screen + low DPI mouse = pain)

ADDITIONAL CONTEXT

I know, I can use CTRL+O, but that just does not feel like a natural key combo… I’m patiently waiting for this FR to come true, first:

Customizable keyboard shortcuts / hotkeys

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. While it’s great that Anytype has an extensive set of keyboard shortcuts, they are not going to be ideal or intuitive for everyone. Some may overlap with system-wide shortcuts that people have, or they may simply differ from what a user is used to and perhaps uses daily in other apps. So it would be ideal if they could be customized. Describe the solution you’d like Keyboard shortcuts should ideally be fully customizable. The user…

I was about to make a separate feature request - but these are similar, so I’ll add it here instead.

Until we get bi-directional links, the best “work around” for seeing links to and from an object is the FLOW tab of the graph. But getting there when I want to check the objects links is a bit tedious. And - especially for new users - clicking the graph link isn’t intuitive when looking for links.

(Didn’t know about Ctrl+O - thanks for that tip! But agree, that doesn’t feel like a natural short cut.)

My suggestion would be a “quick access” button to access the Flow page for an item. I think this is integral enough to Anytype, that I would suggest this be a button on the upper right of the page next to the current “relations” button.

AND - bonus if it was a pop up window, much like the current relations window. That would allow me to check connected links, navigate to one if I needed to; but also quickly return to my current object. (As most of the time - when I want to see linked objects; it’s not so much because I want to navigate to one of the links, it’s usually because I want to see the CONTEXT of whatever object I’m on.)

The addition of a button (I suggest the standard “link” icon might be appropriate) in the upper right that took us DIRECTLY to the Flow page would allow for quickly checking the links to and from an object much like we can currently use the button there to check an objects relations.
