Question 2
In the "Writer guide outline 2" is "Appendix A: Keyboard shortcuts -
deferred until later".
I thought that I would start on this. I looked through the HELP of
OOo2. It has a number of tables available on Keyboard shortcuts.
Rather lengthy and for a neophyte a bit daunting. So I thought that I
would ask you the experts about this concept for starting on the use
of Keyboard shortcuts (KbSs).
I would like to set up a table of the most used KbSs, this would
include sets thereof. Such as if I use the full screen what is the
other one(to get back the not full screen). How do I select to copy
then paste. Keeping that idea in mind would each other hereon send me
a list, not more than seven (7) each, of the KbSs that they use most
often. Me, I would not be able to make a list of 7. (That is now.)
Then I would compile the lists and make a table, that probably might
best fit in Getting Started but then could be expanded for Writer.
The other was to arrange as many as I could into a table that reflects
the keyboard, that is, to start >> all the single puff keys that is F1 to F12 (and if available F13 to
F24 or Cntl or Shft or ?? + Fn)
then all that start with with Cntl, then Shft. Hopefully I could set
the diagram up in such a many that I would be able to cut it out and
paste it onto my keyboard. Then learn.
Ah, the old Wordperfect keyboard template! These days it may not be
possible to create a template that fits all keyboards, but you could try
to fit the most common, standard ones.
Well, them there now. Not exactly. If i remember correctly it was
before PC.
We used PFn keys on the terminals to the mainframe, had templates.
Various apps for PCs copied such.
But I am glad you agree in the attempt. I thought that it is easier to
embellish an idea than sit here trying to think of a new idea.
So I sit here waiting for some of the common standard KbSs that all of
youse guys use.
