Keyboard shortcut to view bookmarks in Google Chrome

Post by jmt356 »

In Internet Explorer, the keyboard shortcut to view your Favorites is alt + A.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to view favorite / bookmarked pages in Google Chrome?
Regards,

How about ALT+F (then press B)

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

Ctrl+Shift+B toggles the Bookmarks bar on and off.

Alt + F, then B pulls up my bookmarks list for me--thanks Rudi.

Ctrl + Shift + B toggles the Bookmarks bar, but I believe I must revert to the mouse from that point to click on the particular book mark.

You can activate the Bookmark Bar extension in Chrome and then use ALT+1 through ALT+0 to access the first ten bookmark buttons on the bar.

Is it possible to import Internet Explorer Favorites as Google Chrome Bookmarks?
