Hot Keys

Hot keys are keyboard shortcuts that work anywhere, not just when you are using Bookmark Buddy. Make sure you use a key combination that doesn’t have a function in another application, since the hot key will override that function.

To set up or change hot keys, select Preferences from the Application menu. Then click on the Hot Keys tab.

To set a hot key, click on the edit box and press the key combination you want to use. To disable a hot key, click on the edit box and press the Delete key.

Activate Bookmark Buddy

Bring Bookmark Buddy to the front when using another application or, if Bookmark Buddy is already at the front, then minimize it.

Fetch bookmark

Bring Bookmark Buddy to the front and fetch the bookmark from the frontmost browser tab.

Open new bookmark

Prompt for and open the address of a web site you want to visit.

Fill out log-in form

Send log-in details of last-selected bookmark to the currently active log-in form/window. Make sure the caret (text insertion cursor) is flashing in the log-in name field. See QuickLogin section for more detail.

Note that these functions are also accessible from the Tool Tray icon.
