Hotkeys: underscore Word. Word hotkeys. Keyboard shortcuts in Microsoft Word

Word is the most common text editor for personal computers. It is used by both beginners and professionals. For comfortable and fast work in Word, there is a keyboard shortcut for saving a document, also called “hot keys,” which allows you to perform certain actions at once, without looking up from the keyboard. This article explains how to save a document in Word using a keyboard shortcut.

Normal save (quick)

You can save a document in Word of any version using the combination Ctrl+S. This "shortcut" executes the "Save" command. However, there are software packages on the Internet in which this combination does not work. In this case, you need to configure it yourself.

Keyboard shortcut Shift + F12 also saves the document in Word. This combination is guaranteed to work in all software packages and versions of all release years. This method may also be more convenient for left-handers.

Saving by selecting a file path (“save as”)

"Hot key" F12 is responsible for performing the “save as” action in Word. Unlike Shift + F12, this command opens a window asking for the save location, document name, and preferred format. This button is needed if you need to create a separate copy of the text, change the format, or save the file somewhere else.

In addition to the specified combinations, you can set new ones, customized for yourself. In Settings, select a keyboard shortcut setting. In the “Keyboard Settings” window that pops up, in the category settings, select “File Tab”, and in it – “FileSave” and “FileSaveAs” for “save” and “save as”, respectively. Now dial the desired button or combination.

I hope that this article was useful and helped you cope with your problem or simply improve your Word skills.

Designed to speed up your work in MS Office and make it more productive. Agree, it is much easier to press Ctrl+C (copy) and Ctrl+V (paste) on your keyboard, instead of executing this command in the traditional way by clicking the “copy” and “paste” buttons on the taskbar.

However, as you probably noticed, keyboard shortcuts are not assigned to all functions that the Microsoft office suite offers to our services. For example, I recently told you about how you can speed up your work with an MS Word document significantly. But this method has one significant drawback - after the bookmarks are created, you can use them only by going back to the corresponding panel and activating the desired tool or using the keyboard shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+F5. There seems to be a combination, but by my standards it is very inconvenient. Now, if only I could replace it with something simpler, for example, CTRL+W (this combination is already used to close the current document, but, to be honest, I’ve never used it at all and I don’t really need it)…

On the other hand, the default “insert picture” tool does not have its own “hotkey” at all. This, of course, is not critical - we don’t add graphics to documents very often, but when you suddenly need to provide a document with a huge bunch of illustrations, you will “suddenly” find that switching the taskbar to the “insert” menu every time is somewhat tedious.

So let's solve these problems and learn not only how to set keyboard shortcuts in MS Word yourself, but also how to override the "factory" settings of the text editor!

Well, are you ready to assign hotkeys in MS Word?

Create your own keyboard shortcuts in MS Word

First of all, open "File" tab and select "Options" item. This time we need “Customize Ribbon” settings block. We select it from the list and see an intriguing phrase: "Customize the Ribbon and Keyboard Shortcuts". It seems we have come to the right place.

We don’t need a long list with available commands now; we look at the very bottom of the parameters window and see the line "Keyboard Shortcuts". Feel free to click "Settings..." button and admire the very unfriendly-looking Keyboard Settings window.

Let's see what keyboard shortcuts are set in MS Word by default for this command

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this - although the list of available commands is named in English, the hints explaining the meaning remain in Russian, and the tools are structured in the same order in which they are located on the MS Word toolbar. That is, first, in the list on the left, I select “Categories: Insert Tab”, and then in the list on the right, the command “EditBookmark” ( edit bookmark - from English.).

Adding new keyboard shortcuts

As soon as the choice is made, the program displays the keyboard shortcut already in use (CTRL+SHIFT+F5). I select it and click the Delete button. Now I left-click in the “New keyboard shortcut” field and press CTRL + W on the keyboard, click “Assign” and “Ok” next. Done, I just redefined the hotkeys, making MS Word a little more convenient for myself.

At the same time, there are two subtleties:

If you don’t like a “standard” keyboard shortcut, you don’t have to delete it. The program also provides that several hotkeys can be assigned to the same instrument.
The new keyboard shortcut must be pressed on the keyboard, and not tried to be entered as text.
If the new keyboard shortcut is already used by another function, the program will warn you about it

The first line is a warning that this key combination is already in use, the second line is that changes are written to the main template

Although, that's not all! Have you noticed the point "Save changes to..."? Yes, as in the case with, all changes can be applied both to a separate document and to the general template of the program ( Normal.dotm). I chose the second option, so when closing the text editor, I will need to go through the same steps that were described in that article.

Feed navigation

The Ribbon in Word is at the top of the window. It consists of buttons for activating functions, which are divided by functionality into several tabs. Each tab has its own set of commands. All commands in the ribbon can be called using Word hotkeys.

To navigate the ribbon, you can use one of two methods:

Click the button Alt and use the arrows on your keyboard to move between tabs to the right and left.
Use hotkeys to access a particular function.

Combinations are not entered simultaneously, as we are used to, but by sequentially pressing the listed keys.

Alt, F– menu page opens File;
Alt, I– a tab opens home;
Alt, WITH– a tab opens Insert;
Alt, D– a tab opens Design;
Alt, W– a tab opens Page layout;
Alt, TO– a tab opens Links;
Alt, L– a tab opens Newsletters;
Alt, AND– tab Review;
Alt, ABOUT– tab View;
Alt, H– tab Developer;
Alt, N– tab Add-ons.

To navigate between tabs, click the button Alt, and then switch between tabs using the RIGHT and LEFT keys. To move to a selection of commands on a tab, press the DOWN key.

You can navigate through the commands on a tab using the RIGHT and LEFT keys, as well as using the Tab And Alt+ Tab. Use keyboard shortcuts to move between groups of commands on a tab Ctrl+ RIGHT And Ctrl+ LEFT.

To activate the selected command, press the key SPACE or Enter. The drop-down list is activated with the DOWN key, moving between commands is carried out using arrows, and activation, like other commands, using SPACE a or keys Enter.

Hotkeys for creating, saving and viewing a document

Ctrl + N – creating a new document;
Ctrl + O – opening an existing document;
Ctrl + W – closing the active document;
Alt + Ctrl + S – splitting the window of the current document;
Alt + Shift + C – unsplit window (previous keyboard shortcut can also be used)
Shift + F12 – saving the current document;
F12 – save current document as...
