Description o.rafelsberger 2019-12-02 22:52:04 UTC
I'd love to see two shortcuts consistently in all applications to move the z-index of an object up or down.

In most applications, you can place graphical objects like rectangles or circles on top of each other. The z-index defines which objects are displayed above others. There is a context-submenu to move an object above all others, below all others, higher and lower. For the last two one's shortcuts would be amazing. So you do not have to right-click the object 10 times and navigate to the submenu to move it's z-index 10 times.

You disagree with ctrl + +/-? What do you suggest?
Comment 2 o.rafelsberger 2020-01-24 08:30:27 UTC
I do not understand comment 1 from Heiko Tieze. What's about disagree?
Comment 3 Heiko Tietze 2020-01-24 08:35:39 UTC
LibreOffice has defined the shortcuts ctrl+ + (and -) to change the z-order. You can change this via tools > customize. And I asked what exactly you would change.

PS: I also replied to you direct message.

Ok. It works like I suggested as described by Heiko Tieze in the comment 1. Didn't know that and didn't find it. 
To me it would have helped if the shortcuts would be shown in the context menu as I never used the main menu for this kind of operation. Sorry.
