I’m use LO 4.0.22 under Ubuntu 13.04 OS.
Why redo keyboard shortcut is always greyed (disabled) ?
I’m forced to move the mouse, aiming, and then click. Doing that repeatedly is against productivity.
Why simple “Ctrl-Y” press disabled?
I find it works this way…
- Ctrl+Shift+Y = redo the last action
- Ctrl+Y = redo the last undo (Ctrl+Z)
Example 1:
- Type “4” in cell A1
- Move to cell B1
- Press Ctrl+Shift+Y and B1 = “4”
Example 2:
- Type “4” in cell A1
- Enter to move to cell B1 (or however you have Calc configured to move) type “5”
- Press Ctrl+Z and delete “5” from cell B1
- Press Ctrl+Z and will move back to cell A1 and delete “4”
- Press Ctrl+Y re-enters “4” in cell A1
- Press Ctrl+Y and moves to B1 and re-enters “5”
Don’t know why it works this way, just know it does.
Yep, works that way in Writer too (of course). In fact, I was unaware of the Ctrl+Shift+Y shortcut - most helpful. Thanks!
