Schrieb Byfield (emphasis mine):However, the Catalog requires many more mouse-clicks or keystrokes than the Stylist to do the same thing. Being stuck in the menu, the Catalog is not as convenient as a floating window such as Stylist. I actually find the Catalog much more convenient, once a handy keyboard shortcut has been attached to it. I'm used to doing as much from the keyboard as possible, as reaching over to the mouse tends to break my train of thought. One nice thing in Word is the ability to hit keyboard combos to jump to some of the formating dropdowns -- Ctrl-Shift-F for fonts, Ctrl-Shift-S for styles, etc. OOo doesn't work the same way, as there appears to be no way to make a shortcut for the dropdowns, but there are the handy dialogs. So a quick Ctrl-Shift-S for the Style Catalog, arrowing up or down to my pick, and a tap on the Enter key, and there's the style I wanted. Much quicker than futzing with the mouse. :)
