We could really use a keyboard shortcut for increasing and decreasing indentation.
Indentation is a very common activity lately and involving the mouse every time a (non automatic) indent must be performed, causing real frustration:
- Right hand leaves its current (ideal) keyboard position on the keyboard in order to grab the mouse
- New users must first search the toolbar to find the indentation command buttons. Experienced users must first confirm the location of the indentation command buttons
- The mouse pointer must be moved (usually more than half a screen, away from the current relevant text) to the indentation button
- If additional indentation operations need to be performed, another frustrating alternation between text selection, typing and mouse actions follow
- Even proficient typists must then re-align the right hand on the keyboard to continue typing. Laymen keyboard users experience a slightly different but similar level of frustration switching back to the keyboard
The steps are very explicit and may be interpreted as exaggeration by some, but they aim to address the corresponding level of generalization (or even apathy).
Please revisit this request.
Thanks.
I'm not sure what time frame the foreseeable future is and since it is not possible to vote on closed requests, it seems difficult to gauge the demand for this feature.
As such, I've created a new ticket for this request.
