I'm editing a table, and I pressed TAB to advance to the next cell, but it did not work. Does confluence not have a keyboard shortcut for advancing to the next cell to edit?

Hey @Laura Mason ,

Yeah by using TAB actually we can move to the next cell.

You may also refer to the following link where you can see more keyboard shortcuts:

Hi @Ravya, I'm having the same problem. If my cell just has standard text, it's fine, I can TAB to the next cell. But if I'm in a bulleted or numbered list, the TAB key is hijacked for list purposes, and indents to the next level within the current cell.

I was hoping there was a shortcut key to advance to the next cell regardless of the current cell's formatting.
