What really needs to be assignable to shortcut keys is *character* styles. I like the concept of character styles but I find them cumbersome to use. Compare the ease of hitting CNTL-B for bold or CNTL-U for underline to all the double-clicking you need to do to assign (and un-assign at the end of the word) a character style that does the same thing.



In 1.9.x you can assign key shortcuts to character styles.

For 1.1.x you can use my AlyKeyHandlet or KeyHandler macros available

Thanks, Ian


Ian is right, all five types of styles can be assigned via keyboard shortcut in 2.0. Sweet!


Cool, I'll have to try it. I was sticking to 1.1.4 when I was doing my term papers and such the last few weeks so I didn't notice that development.

Wishlist item: Take this one step further and make keyboard assignment of Styles available through either or both of:

1. Context menu when you right click on a style in the Stylist window.

2. On the Organizer tab of the style dialog.


Those are both great ideas. Have you filed RFE's for them? If you have the issue #'s, I would like to track them.
