Hi, i have to change a lot of paragraph shades all day,  but it's not possible to assign this to a shortcut to fasten up workflow. There is no paragraph shading in the menu to select for the shortcut.

Correct answer waldemarker

You were very clear: I just suggested you to create a paragraph style including your paragraph shading options and add shortcut to be able to quickly access to the pargraph shading options.

Anyway, you can also add directly a shortcut to the paragraph border and shading window by customizing your shortcuts set:


Hi, thank you. I would need to make a paragraph style for every new document, this is not a fine idea. 

 

Now I discovered the problem, it was the 'translation' of the main menu of the paragraph options, 'Bedienfeldoptionen' was not really logic for me. So I could assign a shortkey directly.

Create a paragraph style and assign a shortcut to this paragraph style.

Maybe it's not clear, I need a shortcut to open the paragraph shading window to edit, not to assign a predefined paragraph shading style
