Getting Started Guide Appendix A Keyboard Shortcuts

Abstract

You can use OpenOffice.org (OOo) without requiring a pointing device, such as a mouse or trackball, by using its built-in keyboard shortcuts. Tasks as varied and complex as docking and un-docking toolbars and windows, or changing the size or position of objects, can all be accomplished with only a keyboard. OOo has a general set of keyboard shortcuts, available in all components, and a component-specific set directly related to the work of that component (Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, and Base). This appendix lists some of the most common general shortcuts. For component-specific shortcuts, see the relevant component guide or the OOo Help.
