What others have folks found will make a master list.

Ctrl-T to open a new text snippet below the current one (that way it doesn't matter where in the snipped you have the cursor when you do it.)

I've found a list of shortcuts in the RW Manual...

Go to Help » Manual » Then search for Keyboard Shortcuts!

Never saw the Manual

I still think there might be something to be said for a cheat-sheet of commonly used keyboard shortcuts rather than the full list. I'd be interested in knowing what other shortcuts folks are using as well that I might be missing. Although I think the above probably covers the majority of them.

Most of the common Windows editing commands work, but folks used to Mac or Linux may not be familiar with them.

Ctrl B toggles bold typing (and toggles bold on selected text)
Ctrl I toggles italics similarly
Ctrl U toggles underlining
Ctrl Spacebar clears all formatting in the snippet (including links)

Note that these appear in the tooltips if you hover the mouse over the ribbon button.

Ah, good reminders. I'm so used to those I don't really even think about them. I suppose the same could be said for:

Ctrl-C to copy highlighted text
Ctrl-X to cut highlighted text
Ctrl-V to paste text from the clipboard (this does remember any previous formatting on the text, too.)

 

[lfseeney]

I think it does.

It does, but it may depend on where you paste it. If you paste it into a Text snippet or the annotation text for a Tag it keeps all formatting (even though we don't currently don't have controls for setting formatting on the latter.) If you paste it into a section header or the like, though, it will lose formatting. It'll even maintain formatting when you paste into the Statblock editor, but once you save it the editor itself appears to drop all formatting.
