Keyboard shortcuts for inline tables

Inline tables are tables which can be integrated into the DOM Editor, according to the particular project configuration. The following keyboard shortcuts are used for inline tables in deviation from those used in the DOM Editor and in the DOM Table:

Key combination

Description

<ENTER>

Insert a line break at the current position.

First put the cursor in the first cell of the table and move it then with the cursor key to the left for inserting a new paragraph in front of an inline table. The new paragraph will then be created in front of the table by using the <ENTER> key.

First put the cursor in the last cell of the table and move it then with the cursor key to the right for inserting a new paragraph behind an inline table. The new paragraph will then be created behind the table by using the <ENTER> key.

<TAB>

Cursor goes to the next cell.

If the cursor is in the last cell of a row it goes to the first cell of the following row.

If the cursor is in the last cell of the table new rows will be inserted below the current one, until the maximal number of rows defined by the template developer is achieved.
