Bug ID: 170307
Summary: Unable to assign keyboard shortcuts to special
characters
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.3.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Other word processing programmes allow the user to assign keyboard shortcuts
(such as 'alt+m' or '---') to special characters and symbols (such as an
em-dash). Please consider adding this feature to upcoming updates/patches. It
would increase useability tenfold for me and other writers.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click 'Tools'
2. Click 'Customize'
3. Click 'Keyboard'
Actual Results:
4. Find keyboard shortcuts are only available for functions, not special
characters and symbols
5. Embrace disappointment and try to move on
6. Fail and send a bug report
7. Hope you're not being annoying
Expected Results:
4. Allow keyboard shortcuts for special characters and symbols
5. Let me assign 'alt+m' and/or '---' for em-dashes, 'alt+n' and/or '--' for
en-dashes
6. Deliver satisfaction
7. Prompt me to remind all friends that LibreOffice exists and that they should
use it
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
