F12 I don't know what "Toggle checkbox item to 'OK'" means, but when I select multiple checked checkboxex and hit F12, they all get changed to unchecked. It saves a lot of times especially if you have the "Repeat clicking a checkbox cycles through the checkbox state" checked.

I came here because I was searching because there was no link to Today under the Go menu. This page didn't give me the answer, but if anyone else is having the same problem I found out that the Journal plugin has to be activated in order to have the Go > Today option enabled.

Hi,
what is the hotkey to close the page-tabs above the main area - each document (page) has one.
Thank you.
