How to change Confluence formatting shortcuts?

[Adam Bang]

Confluence shortcuts for headers all use Ctrl+Alt +#

On a Nordic keyboard numbers 2-5 and 7-0 all have characters assigned to their Ctrl + Alt + # shortcut, making header formatting not possible with the currently defined keyboard shortcuts.

Unfortunately you cannot, but you can vote for the feature : https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-33365

Hi @Adam Bang 

I may have a trick if you just want to access to the shortcut for Headings. And sorry to do not have pushed this option before.

You can use wikimarkup to pick a header style. In the editor, type number of # corresponding to your expected title level, leave a space and then "voilà" you will have the heading style applied.

#####(space) -> Heading style 5

#(space) -> Heading style 1

It works from 1 to 6 (like those available in the dropdown style menu)

Hope it helps.

Hi @Adam Bang 

Have you tried temporarily switching your keyboard to a layout that doesn’t conflict with Confluence shortcuts? US English as an example.

You can also use an extension to help with that.

Thanks for your answer. I'm asking if there is a to do it in Confluence and not create my own workarounds.
