Changed and missing Shortcut key in Swedish version of Word

Hi

Since last week the shortcut key for Bold is changed in the Swedish version of Word.

 

Ctrl+F has changed to Ctrl+B.

 

It has always been Ctrl+F for "Fet" in Swedish and it has now changed to Ctrl+B, the same as in English version of Word for "Bold".

 

In English version of Word does the shortcut key Ctrl+F opens the “Navigations panel” for “Seach” and in Swedish version is has been Ctrl+B to open the “Navigations panel”.

 

But now there is no shortcut key at all, to open the “Navigations panel” in Swedish version of Word anymore.

 

The is no change of the shortcut key for Bold in Word Online and the other desktop Office programs, Excel, Power Point, Outlook, OneNote and Publisher. My colleges have also tested and have the same problem in Word only.

 

Word version 2409 (version 18025.20104)

 

In english version of Word e shortcut key Ctrl+F opens the Navigations panel for Seach and in Swedish version is has been

 

Version 2409 (version 18025.20104 Klicka-och-kör)

 

  • Please let search to change into Ctrl-F (or let it be the sane default option as every other program in existence).

     

     

    Some users have reported that this is now fixed. If it isn't fixed for you, you can manually recreate the shortcut via the Customize Keyboard dialog box (File > Options > Customize Ribbon > Customize). I am currently not at a Windows machine, but I believe that you should look for EditFind in the list of All Commands.

    I see this as well. I recommend that you report it to Microsoft via Help > Feedback in Word.

        I sent an e-mail to the Office team and received a reply stating that this issue is being investigated. 

         

        I still recommend that you use the Feedback facility, if you haven't already done so.

    This is the only change that would make me consider upgrading to Office 365, the number of times I got a bold search term written into my document...

        In recent versions of Word, the command is actually called SmartFind and it displays the pane for Find & Navigation. 

         

        SmartFind is likely called something else in a native Swedish interface.
