Hotkeys to the end of the line. Keyboard shortcut for saving a Word document

We all dream of a “magic” button that, when pressed, would solve all our problems. Alas, she is not there yet.

However, in the computer world, they have made sure that we can quickly and easily store any amount of a wide variety of information.

Texts, pages, pictures, photographs, calculations, reports, websites - this and much more can be easily kept as a keepsake with a simple “save” button.

Where to look for this miracle button? Each case has its own instructions!

Here is a user looking at the keyboard and thinking: “Interesting, huh? what is shown on the “save” button icon? The answer is simple - nothing! There is no beautiful and single “save” button. But, stop! There is no need to be upset.

There are analogues and convenient keyboard shortcuts that are easy to find and easy to remember:

  1. Simultaneous pressing of “Ctrl” + “S/ы”. Suitable for any text documents, most standard programs and browsers. Press easily and quickly with two fingers of the left hand.
  2. The button above the standard letter series or number block is “PrtScr”. This is a quick "save" button for any information on your computer screen. PrtScr takes a photo of the screen and easily displays the result as an image.

It is important to understand that after clicking on PrintScreen, you need to go to any editor - be it graphic or text - and open the saved image.

To open, you need to use the “Paste” function, which can be easily found in a small menu when you right-click on the screen, or activate it with another key combination – “Ctrl” + “V/M”.

3.Miracle button F12. It will appeal to advanced users who not only need to save a document, but also make a later copy of it. F12 performs the “Save As...” function and is ready to either ensure the safety of a completely new, unnamed document, or make a duplicate of an existing one, but under a different name.


What does the “Save Page” button look like in a browser?

  1. For further study in the absence of the Internet;
  2. To return to it later if you have access to the World Wide Web.

Each goal has its own possibilities, but again you will need the magic “save page” button! And she’s gone again!

We solve problems sequentially, but the principles of operation will be approximately the same for all browsers, so you won’t have to worry about searching for a saving function in Opera, Mozilla, Chrome or somewhere else.



Explorer bookmarks

Firefox
  • To ensure the safety of the page for subsequent viewing, you need to find in the line where the page address (Url) is indicated "asterisk" in Chrome– in the browser Opera it will be “heart”– and click on this symbol. When hovered over with the mouse, the icon may show different names: “add page to bookmarks”, “add to favorites or reading list”. It doesn't matter. The essence of all such symbols is the same.


Saving bookmarks in Chrome

Bookmarks in Opera

When clicked, a menu will be displayed where the storage location will be specified and when you click on “done” the selected page will move to a safe place.

Essentially this is a bookmark, but that’s what we need. To now launch the saved site, simply find the desired name on the browser start page: in the top menu bar, as a large icon, or in another place where the word “bookmarks” appears.

The paths are identical to saving the document, that is, from the keyboard:

  1. Combination “Ctrl” + “S/ы” with the appearance of a window and clarification of the storage location.
  2. “PrtScr” key for photographing a page and then inserting it into any editor or document.
  3. "Save As..." function. It is launched either from a menu called up with the right mouse button, or by clicking on this phrase in the browser menu. The browser menu is most often encrypted with three vertical dots, when clicked on, a rather large list of different functions and capabilities opens.

“Save” buttons in Word, Corel, Excel

The most important thing for the user is to figure out where the “save” button is in Word, Excel, and standard work programs. For graphics lovers, you will have to master the specifics of Corel, Photoshop, and their analogues. Believe me, it's not difficult!

  • Floppy disk – “information storage”. Elementary.
  • The “save” button in Corel has a similar appearance.


Knowledge of the following points will help ensure the safety of the created document, file, image:

  1. "Save" or "Save As...". You can find these function lines in the menu. It opens either by clicking on “File” in the upper field of the open program window, or through the “Office” button, which looks like different-sized colored squares in the upper left corner of the document in the latest versions of Word and Excel.
  2. "Export". A typical function for image editors, allowing you to save created images in a variety of formats. In short: when you click on “Export,” a window appears for specifying saving parameters. Then “ok” and you’re done!
    The combinations “Ctrl” + “S/ы” and F12 work great in office and graphics programs.

What should I do and why is the “Save” button missing or inactive?

And now here's the riddle: save button doesn't work. What to do? The situation is quite typical - especially for Corel Draw programs installed using demo versions or through pirated software.

It is best to solve such problems preventively, that is, use licensed programs and not worry about failures.

But since the problem already exists, we will have to deal with it.

There is an interesting way to do this:

1.Add to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts .
0.0.0.0 apps.corel.com
0.0.0.0 mc.corel.com
corel.com

2.Delete the folder.
for Win 7-10
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Corel\Messages
for WinXP
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Corel\Messages

Judging by the reviews of those in similar trouble, the recipe is effective and helps solve problems with preservation.

In 1C, such difficulties are removed by adjusting access rights for a specific user. The way is simple: “Service” - “Users” - “Setting up additional user rights”.

There, select the employee who has problems with the visibility of the save buttons, and put a checkmark in his rights in the table editing line. And everything works again.

It turns out that the “magic” save button still exists on computers, laptops, programs and browsers. Of course, you need to find it first, but with the help of all the instructions described, it’s unlikely to be difficult anymore!

Hot combinations and WORD keys

To select a vertical block of text in Word, you must first press the key combination “Ctrl” + “Shift” + “F8”. In addition, you can select a vertical block using the mouse while holding down the “Alt” key.
In Word, working in Cyrillic mode, sometimes you need characters that are only available in Latin mode, for example. @, $, & in order not to switch modes, just press the Alt + Ctrl + desired key (or Shft + Alt + Ctrl + desired one).
Hotkeys
Bold text - press Ctrl+B (or in Russian mode - Ctrl+I). It turns off in the same way.

Italic text - Ctrl+I or Сtrl+Y (in Russian - Ctrl+Ш or Ctrl+Н).
Underlined text - Ctrl+U (in Russian - Ctrl+Г)
Text with double underline - Ctrl+Shift+D (Ctrl+Shift+in)
Text typed in capitals (reduced capital letters) - Ctrl+Shift+K (Ctrl+Shift+Л) (to change these attributes of an entire word, it is not necessary to select it entirely. It is only enough that the cursor is inside the word).
Paragraph alignment: left - Ctrl+q (Ctrl+th);
right - Ctrl+r (Ctrl+k);
in the center - Ctrl+e (Ctrl+у)
by format - Ctrl+j (Ctrl+o)
bulleted list - Ctrl+Shift+L (Ctrl+Shift+d)
Shift a paragraph to the right Ctrl+M (Ctrl+ь)
Increasing left indentation (except for the first line) - Ctrl+T (Ctrl+e)
Printing a document (in Word and almost all other programs) - Ctrl+P (ctrl+З).
Some useful notes for those who touch type and hate using the mouse:
Change the font in the text - press Ctrl+Shift+F (Ctrl+Shift+A), this will activate the font change window in the formatting panel. We type the name of the desired font in this panel (usually the first few characters are enough - then Windows completes the name automatically) and press “Enter”.
Change the font or paragraph style - similarly, press Ctrl+Shift+S (Ctrl+Shift+І), and enter the font name, for example, “Heading 1”. After pressing "Enter", the entered style is applied to the paragraph, and if the style does not exist, then it is created based on the formatting of the paragraph where the cursor is located.
Entering an endnote. You can, of course, go to the menu to do this, but this again means using the mouse! It is much easier to press Ctrl+Alt+F (Ctrl+Alt+A), and a footnote will immediately appear in the specified place in the text, and the cursor will move to the bottom of the page, where you can enter its description.
It is very easy to remove unused buttons from the panel by simply dragging them out of the panel with the mouse while holding down Alt; in the same way, when holding down Alt, you can change the location of the buttons without going into the options and settings windows (with pressed Alt+Ctrl - you can make a copy of the button). Using the same manipulations, you can place buttons in the menu and menu sections in the toolbar with buttons.
Sometimes a problem arises and you need to change the case of letters, to do this, stand on the word in which you need to change the case (or select several words) and press Shift+F3 several times, depending on how you want: All Capital Letters At the Beginning of Words, CAPITAL or Lowercase.

I do this: I press the right Shift key with my right thumb, and the F12 key with my middle finger. Try it - it’s very convenient and quick.

Microsoft Word has a huge number of tools that allow you to change text beyond recognition. Either of these can be found in the standard menus (version 2003 and earlier) or on the tool ribbon (version 2007 and later). But if you need to quickly convert a document, then using the program’s graphical interface forces you to do unnecessary steps and waste time. Therefore, the developers came up with combinations of hot keys or hotkeys to access basic functions using the keyboard.

Function keys

Text selection

The third use for hotkeys is the text selection operation. The most famous command for it in Word is “Select All” (hotkey Ctrl + A). It selects all text in the document. But more often it is necessary to select small fragments. Therefore, there are other combinations. Their list is given in the table below.

Assigning individual hotkeys

As an example of using this feature, let's add the "Insert lines below" hotkey to Word, since it is not assigned by default. To do this, you need:


In this way, you can bind any tool present in Microsoft Word to keyboard shortcuts.

We guarantee you that if you read this material and use this information in your work, using hot keys will reduce your working time significantly!

To simplify working with a computer, basic and frequently repeated actions were duplicated by the developers into keyboard shortcuts. So, working in a certain program and pressing a combination of hot keys, you will get a certain result. This could be opening a menu, copying data, and much more. Please note that there are constant shortcuts that are the same for all programs - a prime example is Ctrl+C, which means copying active data. And keyboard shortcuts that only work in a specific program.

Today we will look at the basic hotkey combinations for Microsoft Word. In our work we will use the 2010 version of the editor.
Contents:

We control the program from the keyboard

For your convenience, all combinations considered will be divided into groups.

Pay attention to how the recording should be transcribed. The writing involves the designation of a separate key - a separate letter or control button. The "+" sign indicates that these buttons must be pressed together to get the result.

As an example, consider the following entry - closing the active window Alt+F4. This means that in order to close the currently active window, you should press the Alt and F4 keys on your keyboard.
