Navigating page to page using keyboard


Recommended Posts

Is there a way of moving from page to page using the keyboard I know you can scroll through but sometimes when you are looking for something then to click through is much faster as the new page appears on the screen in its full glory nearly instantly.

If not could this be moved to the wish list please

Found it in the Documents menu CMD Up or Down arrow. Only it does not work. If a page is Highlighted (Blue border) it moves that but the page on the screen (grey border) does not change.

CMD R or L arrows also do the same thing

V249 and all user config etc reset

If you have a Mac laptop, try using the fn key and the Command key in combination, then hitting the up and down arrows. This should scroll from page to page, or if there are facing pages, from spread to spread.

Check the Document menu, which should show you the shortcut keys for page navigation. Here's what is default on Windows. Mac will be different. You can, of course, change them (or add ones for the operations that don't have shortcuts by default) in the Preferences dialog.

The screenshot below shows the default page navigation settings for Affinity Publisher on the Mac, the Command key plus the up and down arrows. Unfortunately the Command and Arrow keys in combination do not work on a laptop. However, using fn and Command in combination with the arrow keys will invoke page to page navigation.

It is actually command and PAGE up / PAGE down - this has been discussed in another thread; in newer versions of MacOS the symbols for page up/down are not being drawn correctly by the OS and it looks like a normal arrow instead.

On a Mac, it's Command and Page up only if you have an extended keyboard. For those without an extended keyboard the keys are fn+Command+ up or down arrow.
