Question

Keyboard shortcut to close the topic window

This is probably something I should have been able to figure out, but I haven't found any information about this so far.

It's some time since I installed RH7, but just now started to use it. I'm going through a number of topics to do the same small change in them, and I've managed to do all this with the keyboard, but I haven't found a keyboard shortcut (or a way to assign one) to close the topic window. I had expected Ctrl+F4 to do this, but it didn't. Is this possible to achieve?

Best regards,
Rannveig Østevik

Maybe not "hidden", but I didn't expect it to be under View/Toolbars/Customize... as I didn't see the connection to toolbars. For instance in Word it is under Tools/Customize....

Thx for the link. I have submitted a feature request.

Best regards,

I must take another look as I didn't find it there.

The menu path is one I have seen on quite a few programs other than Adobe's, for what that is worth!

I had already defined a couple of keyboard shortcuts in that dialog box already. BTW - It was quite well hidden. I just stumbled upon it while I was looking for a solution to my problem.

I think I'll submit a feature request to add Ctrl+F4 as keyboard shortcut to close the window.

There are many actions that can be configured for keyboard use. Right click the toolbar and select Customise. Then look under Keyboard and select the different Categories.

Unfortunately you two have come up with options that are not there, as far as I can see.

I have used MacroExpress to configure styles and that works well.

And while we're onto the topic on shortcut keys, is there any way in RH to "redo" the last action? That is, something equivalent to pressing F4 in MS applications? And what about defining shortcut keys for commonly use styles--so you don't have to take your hand off the keyboard to format a paragraph? Can that be done?
