Why isn't ctrl+) shown as keyboard shortcut in Microsoft 365 Word.
Hi Charles, on my system it is actually Ctrl+0 (no Shift key involved) for adding/removing 12 points of spacing before. This is the default on my Swedish keyboard. 🙂
The question is why the Ctrl+) shortcut does not show up on Bobby's system. I doubt either of us can answer that question without access to the computer and keyboard involved (not possible nor recommended). We have addressed how to get a shortcut that will do what he wants.
I have the same Ctrl+0 shortcut listed in my English-US system.
It does not seem to do anything here including in safe mode, but I use styles for my paragraph formatting. Otherwise I use the paragraph formatting dialog in rare instances for this.
A command to increase the spacing would be one of the Open commands.
My recommendation, though, would be to have a Style with the appropriate spacing and apply the shortcut to that.
