Many of OOo's menus have keyboard shortcuts underlined. How is the
user supposed to know if the modifier key for the shortcut is Ctrl-*
or Alt-*?
As far as I know, in *Windows* an underlined letter in a menu item
*always*
means Alt and the letter. If OOo does not follow this convention then I
think its authors are in breach of covenant. Can't comment on Linux or
Mac
though.
Seems to be Alt on Linux too.

Thanks. How are the Ctrl-* shortcuts marked?


In Windows they aren't. You just have to know ;-)
