Keyboard shortcuts for styles in Pages

Not a question but rather a feature request: let me add my own shortcuts for styles, please. This is essential for me - and a lot of other people, right? Please reply if You think that this feature ist important.
KInd regards, Marin

It was important but was crippled by being the function keys and only the function keys, which then interferred with the other function key uses.
This works when it is handy, simple and organised like the single key shortcuts on the numeric keypad in Quark Xpress.

  • Keyboard shortcuts for styles

    Is there a way of assigning a keyboard shortcut to an InDesign style if you have a keyboard without a numeric keypad?
    Thanks

    How could it possibly be faster?
    One keypress versus at least four!
    I am just now wrapping up a 600-page bilingual project with about 150 paragraph styles. I have numpad shortcuts for commonly used styles like "bodyText" or "sectionIntro." However, the hassle of moving my hands from the keyboard to the mouse to scroll through the list of styles is time-consuming enough that I use Quick Apply for almost all character styles, and many of the paragraph styles as well. And, because some of those styles are not commonly used, I often find that I'm using Quick Apply on a parastyle that already has a numpad shortcut - because I never remember whether the 5th-level outline entry with para space after is control-shift-numpad5 or control-alt-shift-numpad5. I dunno if this is why Steve finds Quick Apply so quick, but when I get to name my own styles, it's pretty much impossible to forget "o5a" for the 5th level outline with para space after, and I don't have to go scrolling through lists, expanding style groups, and so on. So, I feel you on that skepticism (even though he said it was as fast, not faster) but over the long run I've found Quick Apply to be signficantly faster for long documents with too many styles, despite the fact that
    [ctrl-Enter] [o5a] [Enter]
    requires more keystrokes than
    [ctrl-alt-shift-numpad5]

  • How to set custom shortcuts for Styles in Pages 5.1?

    I just updated Pages to version 5.1. It said, that it will bring back the feature where you can use different shortcuts for specific styles. How can you do that? Anyone figured it out yet?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Peter thank you very much! I owe you one
    It was way easier back than. I was so mad that the just put it back in this recent version. It drove me crazy.
    Thanks,

  • Keyboard shortcut for cropping (Acrobat XI)

    Hi. I have a minor question about the cropping feature in Acrobat XI.
    In the previous version (X), the keyboard shortcut for crooping PDF pages is Ctrl+Shift+T. However, when I try this combination in the new XI version, it brings up a dialog asking me "where to insert a blank page." According to the help PDF file on Adobe, however, this latter feature should have the shortcut of Ctrl+Shift+Q.
    I'm currently using the Chinese - Traditional language version of Acrobat, and the help PDF file I referred to above is also the version in this language. I'm not sure if it occurs in other versions, such as the English language, but I do not expect keyboard shorcuts like this to be altered.
    Just something to blame: I really miss the old interface (prior to & including 9), where all the features are accessible on the drop-down menus above. That's also where I learnt the shourcuts - because they follow the titles of the items. It's kind of annoying if I have to press the "crop" button on the right panel and double-click on the page to bring up the dialog. I'm more used to cropping pages by entering edges manually, so that all the pages are exactly the same size. Now I cannot even call up the dialog directly with the supposed-to-be keyboard shortcut in XI.
    Sincerely,
    Ryan

    Hi Dan,
    "Save a Copy" is Adobe Reader.
    It is not associated with Acrobat Professional's "File" drop-down.
    fwiw –
    For Acrobat Pro 9; a link to a free downloadable 13 x 19 poster in PDF format (for Windows and Mac) is at:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Professional/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7 aee.w.html
    Be well...

  • What is the keyboard shortcut for extract page?

    There used to be a series of keyboard shortcuts for page manipulation (and other) - using acrobat 9 till recently. Now new to Acrobat XI Pro (Windows 8.1). I can see the shortcuts for insert & delete page but not for extract page (and other). Am I missing something? The keyboard shortcuts are a must for speed and a healthy right wrist.
    Thank-you for your time.

    There isn't a direct way of doing it, but you can "hack" it using a script. Create a folder-level script with this code:
    app.addMenuItem({cName: "MyExtractPages", cUser: "E&xtract Pages", cParent: "Edit",
        cExec: "app.execMenuItem(\"ExtractPages\");", cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target!=null)"});
    This will add a new menu item to the Edit menu which you could access using the following keyboard shortcut: Alt+E, X

  • What is the keyboard shortcut for scrolling page down? In Pages, Safari, etc... Just a single page/ screen view, not all the way to the bottom.  Thank you.

    Trying to navigate the screen without my mousepad.  I have carpal tunnel and early stage arthritis and cannot repeatedly make the appropriate motions to scroll with two fingers.  Is there a keyboard shortcut for scrolling up and down line by line or page by page? 
    Thank you.

    Yeah. sorry. those are not correct. ctrl N + P are for home and end line shortcuts. Ctrl V does go down one line.  But CTRL arrow up or down do not work in Safari.  But thank you very much for the attention and the time...
    Note from my first post above -- I did not say to use CTRL arrow in Safari:
    For Safari:
    Scroll down a line: down arrow
    Scroll down a screen: option down arrow
    Note from my second post above and from the first link I gave that  Control N, P, and V worked for me in Pages as described in the link and in my post:
    The link to shortcuts that I gave abaove includes Control N, P, and V for move down a line, up a line and down a page and those seem to work in Pages.

  • Where can I find a list of the keyboard shortcuts for editing a Wiki page, on Windows and Mac?

    I tried searching in Help, but I haven't been able to find anything.  I'd like to get a list of the keyboard shortcuts that work while editing a wiki page in the Mac Server Wiki running on Lion. 
    When accessing Lion Server Wiki from a Mac, some of the usual suspects work: cmd+B for bold, cmd+} to indent, etc.  When accessing the Lion Server Wiki from Windows, though, I can't find an equivalent keyboard shortcut for the indent / unindent.  Where can I find a list of all of them?
    Thanks!

  • Is There a List of Keyboard Shortcuts for Adobe Digital Editions, I Found Two By Accident the "Arrow" Keys and the "Enter Key" for Turning Pages in an eBook...

    Hi  ??  :       Does Anyone Know If There is a List of Keyboard Shortcuts for Adobe Digital Editions, I Found/Discovered Two By Accident the “Arrow” Keys and the “Enter Key” for Turning Pages in an eBook...   Thanks

    Nope, I doubt it.  As I said:
    I disabled Aero theme, checked font scaling was 100% and rebooted Windows in between all of the steps to no avail.
    I've been reading a lot around this and it seems the arrow key problem is a red herring; I think it's just some kind of terminal preferences corruption.

  • Keyboard shortcuts for functions inside paragraph styles panel possible?

    I would like to assign keyboard shortcuts for functions inide the paragraph styles panel in PS CS6.
    It seems that no option to do this  is exposed - ist this correct?

    That's an interesting approach and it made me aware about menu item insertation - but unfortunately none of the suggested works.
    Clear overrides when executed by button can work both on selections of text and on complete text blocks, the recorded version of
    pressing the button disregards that there's a selection and therefore only works globally. The menu insertation method can not deal
    with existing selections either - it's entry is greyed out in the actions panel when portions of the text are selected.

  • The wireless keyboard doesn't have a page down key. How do you program a keyboard shortcut for Page Down?

    My new wireless keyboard doesn't have a page down key. Very customer-hostile, at least in Office Apps. The list of available keyboard shortcuts doesn't inclue Page Down. Anyone know how to program a keyboard shortcut for Page Down?

  • Keyboard shortcut for a "preferences" detail setting

    Some websites I often use are hard to read in their own colors, so I go to "edit -> preferences -> content -> colors" and uncheck "allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above".
    Other websites need this setting checked to display correctly.
    Can I establish a keyboard shortcut for this setting?
    FF 4.0.1 in both WinXP and Linux

    Specifically for that and because it can be changed via the options, you can create a toolbar button to do that.
    [http://codefisher.org/toolbar_button/toolbar_button_maker Custom Toolbar Buttons Maker] select "<b>Toggle Page Colors</b>", install, move custom button to toolbar. Toggles preferences, removes some but not all images (loses the entire mozillaZine banner exactly same as the preference). Another button that can be included is "<b>Page Fonts</b>", which toggles page fonts between your colors and the web page's colors. Another button that may be needed to read some pages is "<b>Toggle Styles</b>" to toggle CSS styling off or back on.
    Also see page where the above came from, for other suggestions:

  • Change keyboard shortcuts for zoom

    Hi
    When looking at the keyboard shortcuts for MAC, the 100% zoom is down as command alt '0', yet it is showing in the dropdown list as 'n'?
    Is there a way of changing the shortcuts. Previously the 100% zoom was simply command (apple) '0', which is now fit to page.
    Can anyone help with how to change the short cuts please?
    Cheers
    G

    See http://forums.adobe.com/message/4947053?tstart=0
    There was a change to a bizarre shortcut of Fn+n for 'View > 100%' (equivalent to the previous 'View > Actual Pixels' which had shortcut Cmd+1) when Retina compatibility was introduced a few months ago.

  • Keyboard shortcut for printing _current page_ only in Reader 8?

    Hi there,
    I'm working through a large PDF-file, and need to print individual pages while reading through the whole of this PDF file. I don't think that there is a keyboard shortcut for printing _current page_ only.
    I'm aware that CTRL-P gets you to the print menu, but then I always have to opt for clicking on "current page" AND "ok"... With about 50 pages out of a 100-page document this is cumbersome.
    If there isn't such a keyboard shortcut, could Adobe consider giving its users the option to customised shortcuts, and implement this option of printing a current page only?
    Many thanks,
    Pli

    no it doesn't
    it just changes font size
