4 shortcut keys for Word that you don’t know unexpectedly!
What exactly is the convenient shortcut key that gave the contributor such a shock that his glasses broke? Let’s take a closer look.

First, the convenient shortcut key in the first word is “–+Enter” to draw a straight line. When I tried the above shortcut key on Word, I actually succeeded in entering a straight straight line quickly.
As a point of caution, even if you enter it in the middle of the sentence, it will not be converted, so be sure to change it to a new paragraph before entering “-“.

Next, the second shortcut key is “=== + Enter” to draw a double line. As with the “-” introduced at the beginning, you can easily draw a double line by changing the paragraph and entering the shortcut key.
You can easily draw even jagged lines!

The third is a shortcut key that allows you to draw a triple line with “### + Enter”. When I tried to see if I could actually reproduce this, I was able to draw triple lines properly even on my Word.
It’s a type of line that you don’t see very often, so I don’t know if it’s useful, but if you have the opportunity to create a small leaflet on Word, why not give it a try?

The fourth last is the shortcut key “~~~ + Enter” that produces a jagged line. For those of you who used to draw lines on Word using shapes with force, being able to draw jagged lines so easily is probably a good news.
However, all these four lines are fixed in length from end to end of the word and cannot be shortened. Therefore, it doesn’t seem to be something that can be used as an underline to emphasize text.

Dotted line with “*** + Enter”!
Twitter users who saw this tweet commented, “Something like this happened. My eyes turned white.” There were various comments in the reply column, such as those who reported that they were shocked by , and those who said, “I was hitting the keys repeatedly! It’s a learning experience.” has been submitted.
This shortcut key was completely unmarked by the author who uses Word for work 365 days a year, so I would like to actively use it in the future.
This tweet introduces a surprisingly unknown and useful shortcut key that allows you to draw various types of lines in Word. In addition, although it was not listed in the tweet, I tried to draw a line with “*** + Enter” out of curiosity, and I was able to draw a dotted line.
There may be other lines that can be drawn, so it seems that Word’s shortcut keys are still deep…
