How do I use ribbon shortcuts?

Answer

The Ribbon design comes with new shortcuts. This provides the advantage of giving a shortcut for every single button on the Ribbon and these shortcuts often require fewer keys than traditional shortcuts.

Press the ALT button to make the Key Tip badges appear for all Ribbon tabs. Then, on your keyboard, press the Key Tip for the tab you want to display; for example, press H for the Home tab. This makes all the Key Tips for that tab's commands appear. Then you can press the Key Tip for the command you want.
