New keyboard shortcut about sumatrapdf HOT 12 CLOSED

You could adapt an old script I provided to jump any number of pages #3167
so simply-FY as simply Alt F J

if you need it automatic without ask you will need two different ones for + and -
so simply use ALT F + and Alt F - for 2 smaller scripts

EDIT give me a while to test and edit but it can be 3 for the price of one script
so

• -10 (fixed by user) Alt F -
• J(variable) and Alt F J
• +10 (fixed by user) Alt F +

For jump + - and choice in advanced settings add or replace the viewers section with the correct location for the script

The Shortcut will be depending on Language so for English it is ALT +F +the underlined character so + or - or J

ExternalViewers [
	[
		CommandLine = "C:\Users\some folder\jump.cmd" %p "%1"
		Name = send Pages to &Jump
	]
	[
		CommandLine = "C:\Users\some folder\jump.cmd" -10 %p "%1"
		Name = Jump &-10 Pages
	]
	[
		CommandLine = "C:\Users\some folder\jump.cmd" +10 %p "%1"
		Name = Jump &+10 Pages
	]
]

Jump.cmd it will either for Alt + F + J ask how many pages
or for the settings amount (+10 or -10) flash a black screen as its not minimised (to hide it would require extra coding !)

The prior question I linked was where a previous "similar" request was made and rejected in that format, I have not closed this as "duplicate" and leaving open since @kjk has not commented but we will see ?

@kjk
A possible solution would be to have a user variable + - pages in settings that affect the <- and -> icons (currently +1 -1)

Then the key CMDpage previous next (as tied to those icons) could be user assignable if they wish ?
perhaps leave one or more of the other page commands as historic simpler +&-1

In pre-release 16374 or later (https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/prerelease) you can do:

Shortcuts [
	[
		Cmd = CmdGoToNextPage 10
		Key = b
	]
]

This creates shortcut b for advancing 10 pages.

You can do same for CmdGoToPrevPage
