Hi all,

Myself, I do not see a way to have fast access to the "Edit Action: Go to a page in the document"-window.

But, you could think about using another approach, in case you like to change the destination page for a bookmark:
- activate the Bookmarks-pane
- go to the page and place in the PDF where you would like to have the new destination for an existing bookmark
- now, immediately right-mouse-click the bookmark that you like to modify
- in the shortcut-menu, click "Set Destination"

Does that help ?

Hello,

As has already been confirmed, there is no way to quickly open this menu, due to the nature of bookmarks supporting numerous action types, and not exclusively "go to a page". You will need to access this menu from the actions list, at the bottom of the properties pane.

Beyond that, I do hope the advice Willy provided is helpful!

If the Set Destination tool works for you, then assigning a hot-key makes it instantly available.
