Common Toolbar Buttons
The keyboard command, if applicable, is shown in parentheses.
(N) Move to the next UNREAD article and and display it.
Move to the previous UNREAD article and display it.
Move to the next article in the thread pane list, regardless of the read/unread status, and display it (works like the "D" key)
Back (Alt+Left Arrow) Works like the Back button in a web browser – it loads the previously viewed article into the display.
Forward (Alt+Right Arrow) Works like the Forward button in a web browser – moves to the article that was viewed after the article you are currently viewing.
Some of the BLUE buttons have RED counterparts that "Skip to .." (do not open) the article or thread. This is useful for slow connections or offline reading (you may not want Gravity fetching every article from the server as you browse through the list).
See the Navigate Menu topic for additional commands
T o add, remove, or re-order Toolbar buttons see this topic
Focus
Some keyboard keys (Up and down arrows, Page Up/Down, etc) work in the pane that has focus. To always put the focus in the article pane when opening an article make sure the setting is checked in Tools - Global Options - Preferences.
You can set focus in a pane with the mouse or with the 1, 2, 3, keys, or TAB.
Gravity's navigation commands (N, U, D, etc), do not require focus in a particular pane.
