Hotkeys

[manihindrich]

When I install the plugin, there are no keyboard shortcuts mapped for it (except for 'Open table controls sidebar'). Single-key shortcuts, 'Enter' for Next Row and 'Tab' for Next Cell, cannot be mapped. What should I do?

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. install plugin in new empty obsidian vault
2. go to hotkeys
3. See error

Expected behavior
The application has predefined keyboard shortcuts or instructions for mapping them.

• OS: Linux Mint
• Obsidian Version: v1.6.3
• Advanced Tables Version: 0.21.0

Same problem here. Makes it really annoying to use the quick table creation and navigation features

I can't use it either. Maybe the author has given up on updating the plug-in.

Enter and Tab cannot be mapped as Hotkeys for anything - so this is a basic Obsidian design choice or bug. This issue isn't specific to this plugin.

I have exactly zero qualification for the following statement, but I'm sure the Obsidian developers would have been considerate enough for community plugins to have some way to hook into native Obsidian functions like tab and enter. For rebinding I reckon it should only use the hard-coded tab and enter when the hotkey isn't set. And for those who only want the manipulation features you could add a toggle setting.
The maintainer is still active so if I ever have some free time I might do some research on Obsidian plugin development.
