    Hi – this is a bug that has been bugging me for a long time now! Basically I use ‘Baseline options’ quite a lot, and this sits within the ‘Text Frame Options’ Panel (within the Object menu). I used to have this as a keyboard shortcut (I used command-option-B to access it), but from InDesign CC2015 onwards, that keyboard shortcut no longer works. No matter what shortcut combination I add to my Keyboard Shortcuts the shortcut will not work. In all InDesign’s prior to CC2015 the shortcut works.
    Does anybody know why this is, and is there a workaround for it?

    Cheers in advance for any help.

    Just command B!

    You are correct – command B takes to the panel where Baseline Shift is, that’s what I’m using at the moment – but I want to get straight into Baseline Shift – a level further on from command B. As I say you can in Indesign CS3-CC2014.

    Sorry – I meant Baseline options, not Baseline shift!

    Due to lack of activity I’ve decided to make this a bug report to Adobe. This is what I have written if you want to try it out yourself:

    Assigning a keyboard shortcut to ‘Baseline options’ does not work from CC2015 onwards. (CS3 to CC2014 assigning a shortcut does work).

    If you go to ‘Edit > Keyboard shortcuts > Product Area: Object Menu > Baseline Options’ and add a keyboard shortcut for this, it does not work from CC2015 onwards no matter what key combination you use for the shortcut. However, CC2014 downwards it always works.

    If anybody decides to read this and has an answer, please post – thanks.

    Command-B and then Command-2
    The first shortcut to open the “Text Frame Options” panel, the second to jump to the second panel’s tab – Baseline Options

    Well thank you very much Boaz. That shortcut certainly works! – and I shall use that from now on.

    I wonder why the 1-shot keyboard shortcut has gone though?
