What's the command for removing paragraph formatting?

Post by New Daddy »

Using Word for Mac, I found that Ctrl+Q doesn't clear paragraph formatting as it did in Word for Windows.

What's the command to remove paragraph formatting and reset the paragraph to the default paragraph formatting in its style?

I want to create a keyboard shortcut for it, but I can't find the command.

It looks like there is no such command anymore in Word for Mac. It used to be Command+Option+Q in older versions.
I don't have a Mac, so I cannot test it, but you might create the following macro in your default template Normal.dotm:

Code: Select all

Sub ResetParaFormat()
    On Error Resume Next
    Selection.ParagraphFormat.Reset
End Sub
If this works, you can assign a custom keyboard shortcut to it.
Best wishes,

Yes, it worked!
Thanks!
