Ghostwriter Format menu - no hot key for header
SUMMARY
Currently, there are hot keys for all kinds of markdown syntax under Format
menu - except headers. Headers can be inserted either by adding ==== after
text, or by starting it with #. The latter option is not on Cyrillic layouts
like Ukrainian one - instead, № is present which doesn't work for Markdown.
Thus, to insert a header that way, user must switch to US keyboard layout each
time, which is:
- uncomfortable for the user, breaks their typing flow;
- inconsistent with having those for all other formatting options.
Having something as Ctrl+H to insert # in the beginning of line would work - by
pressing it one more time the header will move to the next level. Or,
combination used in some apps could work:
Ctrl+Shift+1 for H1
Ctrl+Shift+2 for H2
Ctrl+Shift+3 for H3
Ctrl+Shift+4 for H4
References:
1. See attached Format menu screenshot - no header insert option.
2. For Ukrainian layout see Wikipedia page - note no # key

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Format menu.
2. Review options.
OBSERVED RESULT
No headers insert hot keys.
EXPECTED RESULT
There are hot keys for inserting headers, no matter what alphabet user's
language uses - e.g. Cyrillic.
