To do that, you will have to access the "Word Options" window by either clicking on "File" and "Options" or by simply pressing the "Alt + F + T" key combination. Access and customize keyboard shortcutsĪs I have mentioned before, MS Word 2016 allows you to access, view and even customize your own hotkeys. You can always access and view the list of available key combinations in the application itself. Of course, there are many other keyboard shortcuts that you might find extremely useful, but I don't think that you want to scroll through multiple pages just for viewing a never-ending list of hotkeys.
Ctrl + F1 - This hotkey will instantly hide the ribbon menu.For example, you can press Alt+F to bring up the "File" menu or Alt+N to show the options in the "Insert" tab. Alt + corresponding letter - Pressing the Alt key will bring up the letters you will have to press to quickly open items from the menu bar and "the ribbon" - the place right under the menu bar that provides you with a multitude of functions.Ctrl + K - Allows you to insert a hyperlink into your selected text.Here, you can view a list of some of the most frequently used keyboard shortcuts: Aside from the standard hotkeys such as "Ctrl + S" for saving the current document, "Ctrl + O" for opening a new file, "Ctrl + Z" for undoing your latest actions or the famous "Ctrl + C" and "Ctrl + V" for copy and paste actions, Word 2016 provides you with key combinations that specific to this application.
In other applications, no amount of fn pushing moves you quickly through a document (though fn-down arrow and fn-up arrow will allow you to scroll through windows one page/window at a time).Download Microsoft Office 2016 Default keyboard shortcutsĪs you might already know, Microsoft Word 2016 (and its earlier versions) comes with multiple keyboard shortcuts set by default. In some cases you’ll find that fn-right arrow moves you to the end of a document in some applications. Regrettably, this key combination doesn’t work in every application because Home and End keys-much to the frustration of Windows switchers-are not implemented consistently across applications. So, for Microsoft Word, these are your Home and End keyboard shortcuts. Similarly, press fn-Command-left arrow, and you’re transported to the top of the document.
You should be taken to the end of the document. Specifically, try opening one of these documents, pressing fn-Command-right arrow, and see what happens. Take a gander at the fn key next to the Control key on your MacBook’s keyboard. And “Customize Keyboard” has no “go to end of document” command to select. The Command-End keyboard shortcut doesn’t work, presumably because the MacBook keyboard has no dedicated “End” key.
Unlike with my older Mac (Cube with OS 9.2.2) using Word 2001, I am unable to move the cursor to the end of a Word 2004 document on my MacBook. Getting to the end of one quickly is a big help. I often work with documents up to 200 pages long. Reader John Fieser longs for keys missing from his MacBook.
