More keyboard shortcuts

It would be useful for a more robust set of keyboard shortcuts to be implemented. For example, I cannot navigate to File by shortcut or File > Open Recent.

Shortcuts have been discussed now and then. Here’s one such thread: Keyboard shortcuts - Q & A - Aeon Timeline

While AT3 has many useful shortcuts, it lacks the ones I need.


The rest of this is not essential to the feature request, because shortcuts are helpful for many (including me) when used manually. In this case, though, I need them for automation. The idea is to hit a button and just write without the distraction of setting up all my writing apps every morning.

I am automating the computer things I must do every morning before writing. I am using Elgato Stream Deck.

I have created a single key in Stream Deck to (a) open my three writing apps, Aeon Timeline 3, Scrivener, and Obsidian, (b) move them to their optimal positions on my monitor, and (c) move my writing cursor to the place in Scrivener that I left off.

While Scrivener and Obsidian are optionally open to the last display state on launch, AT3 does not give us this option. Ideally, I’d like an AT3 option to always open the most recent project on launch. (I have made this a separate feature request here.)

If not, a shortcut for File > Open Recent would work. Even if AT3 had a shortcut for File and not File > Open Recent, I could write a script for AutoHotkey to navigate from File to Open Recent and then open the top-most listed project. I could run the script as part of my one-button press on Stream Deck.
