While typing sentences I would like to change the text color at few places. To do so I have to do it manually by going to fonts pop section. Is there any way to create a keyboard shortcut so that I can change the text color of some word in sentence while I am typing?
Then use File > Options > Customize Ribbon > Customize... to assign keyboard shortcuts to them. Select Macros in the list of Categories, select RedFont in the list of Macros, then click in the 'Press new shortcut key' box and press the desired shortcut key combination, for example Ctrl+Alt+R. Finally, click Assign.
Alt+H+F+C is the shortcut for the Font Color menu and functions the exact same as the Fill Color menu.
Go to Format > Font > Font. + D to open the Font dialog box. Select the arrow next to Font color, and then choose a color. Select Default and then select Yes to apply the change to all new documents based on the template.
Pressing Alt + F9 toggles between fields and their results, and it doesn't matter where the cursor is. But when you update an individual field (by pressing F9), the cursor must be inside the field you're updating. If a field doesn't update as you expect, make sure the cursor is inside the field and try again.
For Word 2010 and 2013, go to File > Options > Customize Ribbon > Keyboard Shortcuts > All Commands (in left list) > Color: (in right list)
-- at this point, you type in the short cut (such as Alt+r) and select the color (such as red). (This actually goes back to 2003 but I don't have that installed to provide the pathway.)
