I've found a topic about Code templates where Simon mentions that they can be used with shortcut keys. So I created a template for HTML heading and name it "heading".
As instructed I write "h" and press "F4" - nothing happens. I write "he" - I get the list of HTML keywords (form AutoComplete). So I disable AutoComplete - nothing. Re enabled, and choose "when asked" - nothing.
Further more the list of shortcuts seems to be outdated or there are no shortcuts for AutoComplete and templates:

BTW a shortcut for "go to Text Clips" would be extremly usefull. I could do something like: ALT+C, I, ENTER - voilĂ and I have a HTML button :-). Currently I have to click a mouse on a Text clips sidebar to do that, but I could use something similar for other sidebars.
I've mentioned ALT+C, but maybe current keys (ALT+F6 to ALT+F10) could active sidebars not only show/hide them. Or CTRL+SHIFT+F7... could activate sidebards to avoid confusion (CTRL+SHIFT can be easily pressed with a thumb CTRL+ALT is more complicated).
