0 mattrobs Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 Yeah, it's for customising keyboard shortcuts, but it's really interesting why they'd choose ⌘.

0 Hawkeye Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 This isn't exclusive to Word 2007. It works in Word 2003 as well, and likely in older versions also.

Question
mattrobs
In Word (I'm in 2007), press Ctrl+Alt+Plus (on Num Pad). The cursor turns into the Mac-never-has-been-named-command symbol.
Probably a feature, but I thought it interesting that they used the same symbol.
