For me it is "CTRL" plus up arrow.

Sigh. I would miss it a lot. It was great. I guess I can get used to hitting "CTRL Up" to get to "my" shortcuts. How quickly the things we like become seeming necessities!

Probably instead I'll turn my Browser's favorites toolbar back on and have mostly-ATP links there.

I wonder - despite having buttons on the left where everyone can see them - would it be possible to have an option in Preferences to turn that floating, customizable menu bar back on, even if it is redundant?

Personally, as long as I have the "Little House on the ATP" always-visible, I would be 100% happy to have to go Home to access the left-hand buttons like Plant Database (frequently) or Ideas and Profile (infrequently).

I actually got into the habit of reaching the plant database by first going to a personal shortcut for the Lettuces Database, then jumping up to the whole Plant DB.

BTW - with the new font sizes, I don't need to Zoom In 1-2 times as I used to, and still do on most websites.. "CTRL 0" makes everything readable. (Though I do have the Windows Desktop option for "Extra Large Font Size" turned on, if that matters. This is with old, bad eyes plus a poor eyeglass prescription.)
