Description Allan Jacobs 2011-10-15 21:52:36 UTC 
Help menu item Common Help Topic->General Information->Shortcut Keys, in the section "Practical Text Input Fields" says:

"2. Use the shortcut keys Shift+Ctrl+S to open the Special Characters dialog to insert one or more special characters."

This is not so and should be removed from the Help text.

Shift+Ctrl+S is the same as Ctrl+Shift+S is the shortcut key for Save file.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1

Still wrong / [Reproducible] with parallel installation of Master "LOdev " 3.7.0.0.alpha0+   - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) ENGLISH UI [Build ID: 3985521]" (tinderbox: W2008R2@16-minimal_build, pull time 2012-06-24)

< Shift+Ctrl+S> opens menu 'File -> Save', no idea what shortcut might be, customize key board does not show a shortcut.

It works as documented. In text input fields, such as the edit box in Find Bar, Shift+Ctrl+S invokes the Special characters dialog.
