Hi Jonathon, Dan, *

I just asked someone knowing it...

Explain how to create a new numbering style, and then a new
character style in OOo, _without_ using a mouse.

I'm really a vi user, not much of an OOo user, so can you give
me the keystrokes a sighted user would use to do that?

Numbering Style (same procedure with Frames):
<F11> (open "Stylist")
<Tab> (Category)
<Tab> (Paragraph Style)
<Right Arrow> (Character Style)
<Right Arrow> (Frame Style)
<Right Arrow> (Page Style)
<Right Arrow> (Numbering Style)
<Enter> (switch to Numbering Styles)

Attention: BUG (probably because the bucket is deactivated):
<Tab> switches to the deactivated bucket (or ewer) symbol (I don't know the right word for the new MSO-like feature)

A second <Tab> doesn't move to the list area, but to the category line below the list - the list itself can't be reached with tabs.

but:
<Shift> <Tab> after the first <Tab> enters this area backwards ;-)

then:
<Shift> <F10> (replaces right mouse button)
<Arrow Down> (selects the "New" button)
<Enter> (enters the Numbering style window, where you can navigate with <Tab>)

For Character Styles (for Paragraph and Page Style as well) you don't have to use the workaround with <Tab> and <Shift><Tab> - press <Tab> and <Tab> again, and you are in the list area where you can go on with <Shift><F10>, <Down Arrow> and <Enter> to enter the style window)



As best as I can tell, for OOo 2.0, you have to use a mouse. [This is one of five or so style related features of OOo 1.x,
that appear to have been removed for OOo 2.0.]

You don't have to use the mouse - but it should be mentioned in Issue Tracker (I didn't have the time to search for an existing issue - sorry)

Best
Bernhard
