Description Jukka 2019-06-07 07:35:12 UTC
Description:
When I create text, I write what I think at that point. Gradually I find out that I must reorganice text what I have written. This can be easily done, if Libreoffice supports shortcut keys for moving the line with the insertion point up or down like in Word on in Onenote (Alt+Shift+Up/Down Arrow).

I see this as a very important feature.

Actual Results:
Document that is more understandable after reorganisation (i.e. moving lines around).

Expected Results:
Easy working with text.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Jukka, just for clarification: Line = paragraph?

Yes, line actually means here paragraph.
Comment 3 Dieter 2019-06-10 07:11:37 UTC
This should be possible with Ctrl+Alt+Up Arrow and Ctrl+Alt+Down Arrow (see https://help.libreoffice.org/6.2/en-US/text/swriter/04/01020000.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=WIN)

But I also can't do this with

I just opened a new document and typed a few lines.

When I assign a different shorcut to that command (I choosed F4) it works.
Comment 8 Safeer Pasha 2021-02-15 05:49:11 UTC
works fine.
paragraphs can be moved with 'ctrl alt arrow'

I'm wondering if a OS shortcut was interfering here... I could never reproduce it. I'm happy it's fixed for you

Simple test-file

I want to reorder first lines with shortcut keys.
Next step would be to indent them when needed with shortcut keys.

Works fine for me with Strg+ALT+ARROW (just put cursor inside the paragraph. It's not necessary to mark them. If that doesn't work, please have a look at Tools => Customise => Keyboard and search for "Move Down" and "Move up"

For further questions please use ask.libreoffice.org, because Bugzilla is a tool for QA and not for individual support. Thank you.

I had to define keyboard because it was originally wrong. I didn't expect that in the first place. Thank you for everybody!
