|
|
Is there a quicker way to check/uncheck the Regular expressions checkbox than clicking it with a mouse?

| Can you see an underlined character in the words at the checkbox? Try alt+that letter. |

On the Find & Replace window, the "O" in "More Options" is underlined, as is the "x" in "Regular expressions", so using the keyboard, type:
ALT+ox |

It works for me only if "More Options" has been opened by pressing ALT+o or clicking the "More Options" button. |

There seems no hotkey for "More Options" button in Russian translation.
I'm going to get another interface language.

I've installed the British English interface, now Alt+ox works. Thanks for the tip.
I wrote a little script for Autohotkey, which allows switching by pressing one custom key:
| Code: | | CUSTOM KEY::Send {Alt down}{o}{x}{o}{Alt up}{Tab 3} |
P.S. Somehow, installing the new interface cleared all the custom hotkeys in the Writer. |
