Problem: During work (translation) I want to mark certain portions of text that I would like to go over again later, before I send the job off. In Word or WordPerfect I use the "highlight" function for this and have keyboard shortcuts assigned to that task.
In writer I tried to assign a keyboard shortcut (like eg. Alt+H) that has the effect of highlighting the currently selected text and preferrably also turn the highlighting off when pressed again (toggle between ON/OFF). First, I could not find the item (highlight) under "Tools -> customize -> keyboard (categories, functions; looked through all available items)". Next, I created a character style that does the above. But these styles seem to be limited to the currently edited document. And although my style seems to be still there, the keyboard shortcut works only if it feels like it (mostly not), and I have to set it up again and again ... I am looking not for one particular character style in one particular document. A keyboard shortcut for one formatting function that is available in ALL documents I will be working on/with. Since Writer, Calc etc. are just parts of ONE thing, it would be nice, if that function would work in all these components. Is that possible? How would that be done?
