Description
Is there no way to move between columns in the entry view? It appears the only way to edit a column (e.g., Due Date) is to double-click on the thing first. This is very awkward. How do people edit a list quickly? There ought to be a keyboard shortcut. Tab does it in OmniOutliner, but tab is used to indent in Mori, so another key such as option-tab might be an option.
Updates
I agree this needs to be better, but you can do it now with the left/right arrow keys. They are less awkward then using the mouse, but still require multiple clicks depending on where you are in the text.

In soon to be released Mori 1.2 you can move between columns with Control-Arrow Key.
Work-around for now: Use the UNIX end-of-line (ctrl-e) and beginning-of-line (ctrl-a) shortcuts (which work in all Cocoa widgets) to hop to the beginning or end of a field. So if I am at the end of the last field, and I want to hop to the field directly to the left, I press Ctrl-a to move the cursor to the beginning of the current field, and then LeftArrow to enter the next field over. So that reduced mouse use to zero, and keyboard use to only SlightlyClunky. :)

Hi,
Thanks for implementing that (and thanks also to the previous poster for pointing out that control-a/control-e also work). These solutions are workable, but of course, users are never satisfied, and I'm going to demonstrate this by asking for one more thing :-). Currently, the movement commands don't work for some fields, in particular the checkbox. The movement skips right over it. Can it be made so that you can keyboard into the checkbox field and then use something like to toggle the status?
Thanks again,
Mike
