Hi,

I have the same question, but with Paste Options > "Keep Source Formatting (K)".

Can anyone explain what the "K" second level shortcut means and how to use it?

If I press Ctrl+V+K I still get the default paste, which I guess is "Use Destination Theme".

Thanks

    Hi Mihai,

    I found this thread with exactly your question. It sure would be nice to have an answer from the Articulate staff :)

      Thanks for following up, Ellen! We've prioritized other bug fixes for our upcoming releases. We have a workaround documented which is to select the paste icons instead of using shortcuts.

      If our team reroutes, I'll be sure to update this discussion.

      Hello Seth,

      We are currently tracking a known issue which is causing keyboard shortcuts for the paste function to not work properly. When text is copied, the Paste options show up to three options with assigned shortcut keys. While it works if you click each option, the shortcut keys don't do anything. 

      We'll let everyone here know as soon as a fix is released for this issue!
