bvde Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 When CMD-RETURN in a text frame the cursor change in 'add a new text frame' (with a +) and I can't change anymore the the content of my text frame. All I can do is create a new text frame and after that if i try to modify the text in my first text frame I have again the tool to add a new text frame.

Alfred Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 By default, Cmd+Return on a Mac (or Ctrl+Enter on Windows) converts the selected object to curves. If you’ve finished entering text, either choose a different tool or click away from the text object to deselect it.

bvde Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share Posted September 6, 2018 OK, I understand but I think Cmd+Return in a text frame (by example in a document with 50 pages with text-frame linked) may be dangerous (I try <cmd-return> to insert a page break). Everything is converted in curves ! with no editing possibilities except 'undo', 'undo', ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woefi Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I also think this is a bad choice for a default keyboard-shortcut. Though at least I'm happy I can change it. In other Software it was always something with -O- like outlines or -P- like paths. The return or enter key is too elementary in writing to remap it to something destructive.

Fixx Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I would recommend removing that shortcut. You can do it in Preferences > Shortcuts. Creating outlines from text is relatively rare operation and I can seek it from menus when I need it. woefi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
