Page Break and Page Break with new Style

Found that using "Cntrl + Enter" produced a Page Break without the posibilty to change the Page Style on the new page.

Is there also a short cut key combination to make a Page Break with new Style ? wath now must been done with Insert >> Manual BreaK >> Page Break with new style

Thanks for any hints

Perhaps depending on your operating system, Alt+I, B should bring up the Insert Break dialogue. Pressing P will select "Page break" and S the Style drop-down. The arrow keys will then move through the list of available styles.

Alternatively:
o Go to Tools | Customise... | Keyboard.
o Under Functions | Category, select Insert.
o Under Function, scroll down to and select Manual Break.
o Under "Shortcut keys", select your chosen shortcut.
o Click Modify and OK.

I trust this helps.

Yes thanks

In addition to the other response, it is good to know that page breaks
inserted manually are defined in the Paragraph style immediately following
the break. You can access this property through two mean:
- Right click on the paragraph at the top of the new page, select
"Paragraph..."
- Put your mouse cursor on the page break (on my system, it's a blue dotted
line between pages), and when the contextual arrow shows up, click and
select "edit page break"
Both ways will open a dialog with a "Text flow" tab containing the page
break, with the possibility to add/change the page style and numbering.

It is particularly useful to know when working with master document, when
you need to track a rogue page break that appear at the beginning of
sub-documents.

I think you mean in the paragraph's own *format*, not in the paragraph style of that paragraph.

Exactly: via Paragraph..., not via Edit Paragraph Style... .

​That is correct, thanks for the correction. I'll rephrase: inserting a
page break change the following paragraph's own style, and you can modify
the page break there afterward.
