In summary, The conversation discusses the possibility of a keyboard shortcut for the preview option on PF, which would allow users to privately view their post before making it public. It is mentioned that there is no known shortcut currently. The conversation also discusses some strange responses to various keyboard combinations. However, it is mentioned that PF has properly documented all of its features. One suggestion is made to try using Ctrl+alphabet keys to search for a shortcut.

Does anyone know, here in PF, what is the keyboard shortcut for the preview option, which let's you see (privately) how your post looks before you can make it public?

I do not think there is any. Otherwise, it would be noted:

Are you saying that PF has properly documented every feature? :wink:

Well, the short answer is 'yes'. The long answer is a possibly patronizing lecture about software development. :cool:

This post is trying all ctrl/key combinations to search for "Preview"; hope it doesn't crash. None found...

Trying alt/key. None found.

Trying ctrl/alt/key. None found.

Trying ctrl/shift/key. None found.

Trying ctrl/alt/shift/key. None found. (no response at all)
:cry::cry::cry:

There are strange responses to some combinations, though I didn't document them. Things like Open Page Source In Editor, Invoke HTML Debugger, Move Tab To New Browser Window, Close Tab, Change PF View To Phone Format.

Cheers,
Tom

I suggest we should try with Ctrl+(All alphabet keys) - one at a time, 26 times. :-p
