The keyboard shortcut used in default applications like mail.app is increase indent: alt+cmd+6 decrease indent: alt+cmd+5 Expected: LO should support those two shortcuts. Currently: Nothing (or a different shortcut which I am not aware of).
Adding: pages uses Cmd + ] and Cmd + [ since alt+6 = ] and alt+5 = [ this would be consistent with how mail.app behaves adding a +1 that apple thinks, this is what the shortcut should be.
** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (5.4.1 or 5.3.6 https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

I guess this feature request needs input from the UX team? I had a look on the Shortcut keys help file, and there doesn't seem to be any support for this on other platforms either https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Shortcut_Keys_for_Writer
I would also prefer to not assign a shortcut as this function is not so frequently used and we should save the rare shortcuts. Up to the agenda for the design meeting... Besides, any combination with [ is doomed as those keys are not accessible on all keyboards (on German IBM it's altgr+8/9)
If a shortcut will be added it should follow the main and similar other products of the OS so that's better memorizable by users.
We discussed the request in the design session. Indentation is not a function that requires a shortcut by default, so we suggest to customize it (the commands are "Increment Indent Value", "Decrement Indent Value"). MSO Word indents on tab (and decrease the indentation to zero with backspace) while we insert a tabulator character. That can be done in Word with ctrl+tab (or was it ctrl+t?). In the end, we don't think that changing our well-working interaction makes much sense. (The "missing" shortcut is not restricted to macOS)
