That's supposed to happen - but when you type Ctrl+3, not Shift+: . A few
thoughts:
o Go to Tools | Customise... | Keyboard.
o Under Category, open the Styles entry and select Paragraph.
o Under Function, select "Heading 3".
o What does it say under Keys? It should be Ctrl+3; is it something else?
o Go to Tools | Customise... | Keyboard.
o Under Category, select Format.
o Under Function, select Apply.
o What does it say under Keys? It should be nothing; is it something else?
o If Shift+: is being interpreted as Ctrl+3, is there something seriously
wrong with your keyboard driver? Or keyboard? What happens if you type
Shift+: in another application?
But I'm guessing ...
I trust this helps.
I had, I recall, rooted around in those settings but it was good to
have another look. all these settings look 'kosher'.
the problem has cleared up though. here is my hypothesis but I don't
know if it makes sense: perhaps my default.ott was
misconfigured/corrupt (I make adjustments relatively often) and it
'caught something'.
I don't know why I didn't immediately see a change when I replaced it
with an older copy, I don't know when it gets loaded. I usually do not
restart AO but maybe I had. loaded a document that gave me the problem
and there's no problem now.
I much appreciate the good advice!
