Customize Shortcuts

The keyboard shortcuts for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint can be customized. To customize keyboard shortcuts, from the Felix menu in Word, PowerPoint, or Excel, click on Felix Preferences, then click the Shortcuts… button.

The following dialog appears:

Edit Shortcuts Dialog

Click on a command in the top left window. The keyboard shortcuts for that command are shown in the top right window. In the bottom of the dialog, choose a key combo (ALT, CTRL, or CTRL+ALT), a key, and an optional second key, then click Assign to add that shortcut.

Customize Abbreviations

The list of abbreviations for Word and PowerPoint can be customized. This is a list of words that end in periods, which should not be considered the end of the sentence for segmentation (defaults include words like “Mr.” and “Ms.”). To customize the abbreviations list, from the Felix menu in Word, PowerPoint, or Excel, click on Felix Preferences. Next, click the Segmentation tab, and then click the Shortcuts… button.

The following dialog appears:

Edit Abbreviations Dialog

Edit the list of abbreviations, then click OK.

This release includes the following fixes and improvements.
