Bug ID: 525167
Summary: Feature: Keyboard shortcut for focusing Contents tab
in sidebar
Classification: Applications
Product: okular
Version First 25.04.2
Reported In:
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Target Milestone: ---
I would like to have a keyboard shortcut to switch to and focus the _Contents_
tab of the sidebar. The specific use case is to quickly navigate to specific
sections in a longer PDF (like a book) using the keyboard – a workflow could
look like:
1. User presses shortcut (e.g. Alt+C) -> Sidebar opens on Contents tab, search
field is focused
2. User types 'Mem' -> TOC is filtered to only show entries containing the
substring 'Mem' and their parents (this already works)
3a. User presses Tab -> Focus switches to the Contents tree view, first match
is selected
3b. User presses Enter -> additionally, main view jumps to the position
associated with this TOC entry
Currently, the only way to navigate to and around the sidebar tabs without the
keyboard only seems to involve a lot of Tab/Shift-Tabbing, and I was not quite
able to predict when the focus is on the sidebar after "Show sidebar" and when
not.
