Description: In old versions of MS Word it was possible to focus and select the drop-down combobox which sets the font size of currently selected text in the second default toolbar, by pressing CTRL+Shift+E. This keyboard shortcut was pratical for input manually the font size multiples times on different lines, like editing the layout of a resume by using only the keyboard, resulting in a gain in productivity. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Hit CTRL+MAJ+E (like Enter a font size manually with keyboard) 2.Enter the desired font size in the combobox from the second toolbar 3.Hit Enter to apply to the currently selected text Actual Results: Nothing happens. Expected Results: The selected text is on the size entered by the keyboard in the dropdown combobox Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 24.8.4.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: bb3cfa12c7b1bf994ecc5649a80400d06cd71002 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (10.0 build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: fr-CH (fr_CH); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded
-1, can see the utility to keyboard editing, though it encourages DF rather than applying a character style. Which is much more efficient a work flow. Also, the requested MS shortcut <Ctrl>+<Shift>+E is already assigned UNO of the .uno:JumpToFootnoteOrAnchor toggle. And would not reassign, adding to -1. Direct keyboard Decrease/Increase of font size is implemented and assigned as <Ctrl>+[ / <Ctrl>+] (.uno:Grow/.uno:Shrink), but it does not use a list box GUI for selection. Rather, a changed font size is immediately shown in all exposed listboxes, Standard toolbar, SB Properties deck, or NB assemblages. Finally, the current UNO .uno:FontHeight is available to assign, but it does not directly access the Standard tb's font height listbox--rather opens onto the 'Character...' dialog requiring cursor movement to reach the list box. Could that action be adjusted to open dialog with cursor focus into the dialog's font Size listbox? If so that might be a more helpful UI for the UNO...
(In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #1) > Direct keyboard Decrease/Increase of font size is implemented and assigned > as <Ctrl>+[ / <Ctrl>+] (.uno:Grow/.uno:Shrink)... You may need to change the assignment if the French keyboard has no direct access to the square bracket (or if you want to use a familiar shortcut). => INVALID (because available)
