Common questions about Hotkey usually involve shortcut lookup, shortcut conflicts, and custom settings; this FAQ covers 3 frequent questions and a glossary.
FAQ
Why can’t I find a shortcut for a specific feature in the Hotkey panel?
- Open the Hotkey panel and place the cursor in the search box.
- Search again with a common name for the feature.
- If no result appears, that feature may not have a preset shortcut, so use the menu command instead.
What should I do if a shortcut is intercepted by another app?
- Check whether an input method, translation tool, screenshot tool, or another utility is running.
- Review that app’s shortcut settings and confirm whether the same key combination is in use.
- Close the conflicting app or adjust its shortcut, then return to WPS Spreadsheets and try again.
Can I customize shortcut settings?
- Open the Hotkey panel and review the currently available preset shortcuts.
- Confirm that the current panel is for viewing only.
- Use the existing preset shortcuts for now, because customization is not supported in this panel.
