Absolutely Marc, thanks for requesting this! (In reply to Marc Auslander from comment #1) > I realize that [ and ] are the totally non obvious shortcuts for this. Totally non-obvious indeed. Also makes no sense at all because in mail, that's for jumping back and forth between messages you selected (history navigation, so to speak): Select message 1, then message 10, then message 5; pressing `[` will go "back" through your history: 10, then 1 (which in absolute terms starting from message 5 is forward, then backward). So the history shortcut of mail acts as a plain navigation shortcut in calendar... > So my request is that you replace them or add the obvious alternatives of pageup and pagedown. Sounds good to me. The problem is that we don't have any defined focus behaviour in the main view of Calendar - so fixing that might turn out a can of worms. But we have to try it, because the status quo is definitely not good enough. Overall calendar keyboard accessibility and focus behavior leaves a lot to desire - undiscoverable, unintuitive, lost or invisible focus... I guess that's fundamentally broken :-/ Needs a complete overhaul!
