Summary0017162: [PATCH] apply style "shortcuts" based on the "action search" tool
Descriptionfinally, i have recreated the applyStyle plugin as a "clone" of the actionSearch tool.

there are a few question open:

- where to attach it in the menus (i've picked Item > Text features).
  even if the user is not supposed to use the menus to start it, for discoverability purposes, it's worth to have it somewhere in the navigation.
- which shortcut to use to start it: i'm using ctrl-shift-space.
  ctrl-space would probably be better (we would then use ctrl-shift-space to the special space that is inserted with ctrl-space)
  anyway, it should be something that is very simple to reach.
- if and how extend the tool to also support other types of formatting.

a patch will follow very soon.

I'm not sure how this could be faster than using style manager in "Apply Style" mode and right-clicking style then Apply. Or even using PP...

this is about using the keyboard for applying the styles!
both ways of doing you're suggesting, imply reaching for the mouse.

if you choose wisely your style names, it's almost like using shortcut, except that:

- you don't have to assign shortcuts to the styles (and each document can have different style names)
- you don't have to come up with complex shortcuts (because all the good ones are already taken)
- you can be very idiomatic when applying shortcuts

applying the h1 styles is:

ctrl-shift-space h1 return

and you don't have to type the full name, any part of the style that matches is fine (and in the future it would nice to have some fuzzy matching too : - )

we could add this functionality to the action search, but i think that keeping them separated is the better choice.
most of all, if we can find a good way to add other formatting to this new tool.

i don't know if you're using visual studio code (or there is a similar feature in visual studio), but it's like using ctrl-p in there (and ctrl-shift-p).
