Shortcut for Horizontal Scale

Is there a shortcut for Horizontal Scale or is it possible to create one?  I use horizontal scale extensively and find it quite labourious to have to go up to the panel each time.

Looks like only those:

 

Decrease horizontal scale Decrease horizontal scale Text and Tables 119796
Decrease horizontal scale x 5 Decrease horizontal scale x 5 Text and Tables 119798
Increase horizontal scale Increase horizontal scale Text and Tables 119795
Increase horizontal scale x 5 Increase horizontal scale x 5 Text and Tables

119797

 

 

 

But what exactly are you doing with your text - what is your workflow?

Maybe there would be too many? 

 

That's why I've asked about the workflow.

Yes, otherwise we are just guessing. I personally dislike horizontal scaling, but there can be a use for it in a design situation.

    Many thanks Robert. I was looking for a shortcut for the horizontal scale for text. Do you know if there is a horizontal scale available or is it possible to create one?
