Keyboard Shortcuts by Key

See also : Mouse shortcuts | List and export of all Keyboard Shortcuts

Quite standard for Linux applications

 * CTRL + MOUSEWHEEL UP or DOWN enables to quickly zoom in or out


 * CTRL + MOUSEDRAG on the canvas enables to move the current viewport

Specific to Scribus

 * When in Text edit mode : 1) DOUCLE CLICK on a letter part of a word will select the whole word. 2) CTRL+DOUBLE CLICK will select the whole paragraph


 * In the style edition dialog, when selecting a font, a very long menu has to be scrolled through all installed fonts. CTRL + MOUSEWHEEL enables to scroll one whole screen down or up.


 * When in Image Editing mode (double click on an image frame first), SHIFT + MOUSEDRAG enables to rotate the image


 * Not a keyboard modifier but worth noting : the measure inputs in the Property Palette accept mathematical operations (Example : 132+48 for width, or 43+180 for rotation, or even (2*3)+1 for height)

TODO
"Good momentum for this with the latest commits for pg-up/down button (http://scribus.net/websvn/revision.php?repname=Scribus&path=%2F&isdir=1&rev=19178) and adding standard OS X shortcut keys (http://scribus.net/websvn/revision.php?repname=Scribus&path=%2F&isdir=1&rev=19180)"
 * Clean up this page
 * Implement as a plugin https://github.com/cpyxis/Scribus-InDesignKeys
 * Create a useful ShortCutMapper for Scribus: http://waldobronchart.github.io/ShortcutMapper/ (How to add shortcuts for a new Application)
 * Relate Keyboard_shortcuts as well
