In Draw, F4 does open Position and Size. In Writer/Calc that would be convenient too. For an image in Writer, F4 should open tab Type of the dialog Image (properties) Currently F4 does nothing in this situation.
OK -> NEW
Proposed patch for Writer: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/108883
Objection to use a precious function key for a secondary command. They are typically reserved for global features such as Help/F1 or Rename/F2. While P&S might be crucial for Draw it's not for Writer/Calc.
Gabor Kelemen committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/6c333f95fbdec8fa65701507b33ac53ccbccba2f tdf#107588 Assign F4 shortcut to Image Properties in Writer It will be available in 7.2.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
Verified as fixed for Writer but not for Calc. Should this also be done for Calc, as it was part of the original proposal, and for consistency across components?

(In reply to stragu from comment #5) > Should this also be done for Calc... Probably better to file another ticket. Or just reopen.

Aha of course, I forgot about that very important one, my bad. Marking it as verified then.
