You can read the schema belonging to that configuration file: https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/officecfg/registry/schema/org/openoffice/Office/Accelerators.xcs?view=markup#l45 In order to understand it, it is better if you read the configuration files, both the schema and the data, with an editor that lets you collapse the nodes. As the component defines, there are two main groups: - "PrimaryKeys": contains the preferred keys - "SecondaryKeys": contains the secondary keys Each group has two sets: - "Global": valid for all OpenOffice modules, its elements are of type "Key" - "Modules": valid for an specific OpenOffice module, its elements are of type "Module" So you have: PrimaryKeys Global Modules SecondaryKeys Global Modules In the "Modules", each node has the name of an OpenOffice module, see https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Office_modules_since_OpenOffice.org_2.3 The type of the elements is defined in the templates: https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/officecfg/registry/schema/org/openoffice/Office/Accelerators.xcs?view=markup#l28 Both Global and Modules are a set of "Key". Each Key is identified by its name in the oor:name. The name is composed of the key name, followed by SHIFT and/or modifiers, all in uppercase and separated by "_". Keys are as defined in the API here https://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/awt/Key.html Modifiers here https://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/awt/KeyModifier.html Each Key has a property named Command, which contains a UNO command. This property is localized but not translatable, this means that the same key can be bound to a different UNO command, depending on the UI language. For example, among the PrimaryKeys for the module Writer, "com.sun.star.text.TextDocument", you have Ctrl + B: <node oor:name="B_MOD1" oor:op="replace"> The key is bound to different commands, depending on the UI language: - in German, it is bound to .uno:JustifyPara, this means that Ctrl + B justifies a paragraph in Writer with German user interface - in Spanish, Ctrl + B opens the search dialog: .uno:SearchDialog (Search is Buscar in Spanish, hence the "B") - in English, Ctrl + B sets the text in Bold, .uno:Bold is the command <value xml:lang="x-no-translate"> means that any of these values should be translated, UNO commands are not meant to be translated! > To try to narrow down which parts of the code apply to where I replaced all > of the 4 N_SHIFT_MOD1 commands from NewDoc to Grow and after building the > system the change did work and I could increase the font size in writer. > > Is there some hidden structure to this file that i'm unaware of?

See Regina's answer. Try to see what Microsoft Office does, as most users come from a MSOffice background. According to this page https://support.office.com/en-ca/article/Keyboard-shortcuts-for-Microsoft-Office-Word-628621ea-c0b7-4f01-bc3e-50640c0b46dc http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/290938 Decrease font size one value. CTRL+SHIFT+< Increase font size one value. CTRL+SHIFT+> Decrease font size 1 point. CTRL+[ Increase font size 1 point. CTRL+] Side note, you don't need to build the whole source code in order to try this out, you can make an extension. See these files: https://people.apache.org/~arielch/extensions/Accelerators.zip that generate https://people.apache.org/~arielch/extensions/AcceleratorsTest.oxt If the shortcuts don't show up in the Tools - Customize - Keyboard, that's a bug you'll have to fix ;) Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, Argentina
