   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   Further more the list of shortcuts seems to be outdated or there are no shortcuts for AutoComplete and templates:
   http://pnotepad.org/docs/navigation/keyboard_shortcuts

   BTW a shortcut for "go to Text Clips" would be extremly usefull. I could do something like: ALT+C, I, ENTER - voilà 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).

   Hi, did you set the shortcut to F4 - it's not set to that by default. I've just checked and the default templates that ship for C# seem to work ok for me. I went to Edit->Insert Template and I get a dropdown list of available templates.

   The doc list of shortcuts may be out-of-date, the best way to check shortcuts now they're customisable is to open the Keyboard options page.

   The shortcuts for selecting the clips window etc. are a good idea, please file a request.

   Hm... I guess I've misread your post about Code templates:

   I've mapped the key and it all works fine now.

   Request sent:

   BTW. Simon could you send me a file which would contain all shorcuts? I couldn't find anything like that on SVN. I could then put it in the docs.
