Trigger note preview with keyboard only

Add a keyboard shortcut to trigger the note preview popup when a note is selected (or the cursor is on a link).
This is particularly useful in File Explorer.

A good candite would be ctrl\cmd or even nothing (automatically open the preview).
The selection should be handled in Page Preview plugin options along with the others.

I’d like something similar except without even a keyboard. Open links in a pop-over on ios without mouse? - #2 by CawlinTeffid

Was this ever implemented by any chance? in sore need of this feature.

I’d also be interested in this feature. One of the things I like about Obsidian is how easy it is to navigate with out a mouse, but I haven’t yet found a way to see the preview popup without it.

Please add an arrow key navigation and change the editor note to the selected file directly like Apple Note. It’s super super useful!!

Looks like there is a request for that specific functionality here: Open file automatically in accord to file explorer focus using keyboard navigation.

And I totally agree. Feels pretty basic, and very important!
