Web Author Paste Special keyboard shortcut

[aabuan]

Hi,

I am looking for a way to add a keyboard shortcut for "Paste Special". I saw the post [1] about creating shortcuts for Paste as XML and Paste as TEXT using plugins but it's not what we need. Is it possible to add a keyboard shortcut key using the web framework? If not, is there another way to do it.

Thanks,

Hello,

The id the the Paste Special action is "Author/PasteSpecial".
You can override the built-in action with a custom action that has a shortcut. The custom action can delegate to the built-in action that you can obtain from the ActionsManager like this: actionsManager.getActionById("Author/PasteSpecial").

Here https://github.com/oxygenxml/web-author ... /plugin.js you can find how to obtain the actionsmanager object.

Bogdan, thank you so much for your guidance. I used the web-author-paste-actions plugin, replaced the code in the plugin.js according to our requirements, and now it works!

You guys are the best!
