Go to next paragraph shortcut

Hi,

I might still lack some practice, since I'm a veteran of FrameMaker but a newcomer of FrameMaker Windows. So, it could not surprise if I cannot find the shortcut to "go to the next paragraph". Ctrl-down goes to the end of the current paragraph, but then stops there, until I don't press it again. On the contrary, selecting by paragraph with Ctrl-Shift-down works fine, as does moving up with Ctrl-up.

Am I missing something?

Paolo

    Arnis,

    While I know that document very well, I fear I cannot find what I'm looking for, because I'm looking for the wrong item. What I'm looking for is the mirror of the "Go to Start of a paragraph" command (Ctrl-Up). I was hoping it was "Go to End of the current paragraph" (Ctrl-Down), but this stops by the end of the current paragraph, without continuing to the end of the next one.

    The command I'm looking for is probably "Go to Start of the next paragraph", but its shortcut does not allow for quick scrolling of the text paragraph-by-paragraph (since you must use an Esc sequence for each move of the cursor).

    Is there a way, even with an external keyboard shorcut patcher, to use Ctrl-Down to continuously flow from paragraph to paragraph?

    Paolo,

    You can modify the ctrl+PgDn function in the wincmds.cfg file to be the equivalent of the <esc> b p shortcut. You need to follow the instructions in the Customizing FrameMaker documentation found here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FrameMaker/8.0/customize_frame.pdf

    The <esc> b p sequence is defined as such:

    <Command IPToNextParaStart
        <Label Move IP To Next Paragraph>
        <KeySequence \!bp>
        <Definition \x142>>

    Modify the ctrl+PgDn function to have the same Definition.

    Do make backups of the .cfg file before you start playing with them.

    Thank you for your answers. The version I'm using is 9.0p250, that I guess is the latest one.

    As for the Esc shortcut, yes, I know it, but I don't find it very useful for quickly scrolling a document. I'm looking for something that allows for quickly jumping to a later point in the document, while having a quick glance at the text, without having to grab the mouse.

    This can be done while scrolling up, but not down. With the Mac version, I could do it both ways, so I wonder if there is a different command to do it.

    See the FM Help > Keyboard Shortcuts > Navigating through documents and then take your pick of shortcuts depending upon the distance you want to move.

    Paolo,

    Try <esc> b p for beginning of next paragraph

    The ctrl-dn arrow just moves to the end of paragraph, while ctrl-up moves to start of paragraph in Windows.

    What specific version of FM are you using, including the "pxxx" numbers as shown in Help About?
