Del

At the end of a para/simpara, if there is no node or text selection, joins this para/simpara with following sibling para/simpara if any.

Otherwise, normal behaviour.

BackSpace

At the beginning of a para/simpara, if there is no node or text selection, joins this para/simpara with preceding sibling para/simpara if any.

Otherwise, normal behaviour.

Ctrl+Enter

Inside a para, simpara, listitem, callout, step, inserts same element after this one.

Elsewhere, no effect.

Note

If the para/simpara is the first child of a listitem, callout or step, it is a listitem, callout or step which is inserted, not a para/simpara.

If, in such case, you want to insert a new para/simpara, simply press the Enter key at the end of the paragraph.

Shift+Ctrl+Enter

Inside a para, simpara, listitem, callout, step, inserts same element before this one.
