function key for indent?

P

Patnaik

Is there a function key for the Indent function (like F7 in
WordPerfect), some key-function that would initiate a hanging indent
function? Any advice or information would be apreciated.

Thanks

Ctrl + T gives you a hanging indent in .5" increments; Ctrl + Sh + T
reverses the process.

Ctrl + M gives you a left indent in .5" increments; and you guessed it
Ctrl + Sh + M reverses the indents.

The .5" increments assumes that you have not reset your default tab
position. If you have then it will increment according to the new
measurement.

Not the most intuitive keystrokes but they work. Also unless this is
for an isolated paragraph here and there, I'd suggest using a Style
that includes the hanging indent setting to format the paragraphs.

The measurements given above are only valid for the default tab layout. In
all cases, the specific points at which things happen are the currently
active tab stops.
