Sorry for that. If I understand this correctly this is apparently not possible on Mac. Help-docs are opened read-only and non editable, the change-tracking sub-menu greyed out. (Help-files reside inside the application bundle) To do anything with the doc I had to save it.

Direct quotes with Opt-s, Opt-#. (obviously translated then) In both cases assuming German keyboard-layout. Since this seems to be more than what’s intended for this doc, a switch to the hardcoded shortcut inset would display Alt-" on linux and Ctrl-" on Macs. But these are missing completely from the German guide whereas they are present in the English one. Are they to be avoided for German? mn
