Vertically Centering Text in Writer

Source: http://en.libreofficeforum.org/node/498

Well, I think a vertically aligned text is quite rarely used (except for making signboards like "Do NOT disturb" or similar).

So, there is no shortcut. But it is not so much work:

Write your text and select it (<CTRL-A>)

1.) Insert Frame by typing

<ALT-I>M

2.) Set width automagically:

<ALT-U>

3.) Select vertical align

<ALT-V>C

4.)  Select reference:

<ALT-O>

select 'entire page' or 'page text area' - as you wish

5.) confirm by pressing <ENTER>

It's eight keystrokes that can be recorded as a macro and assigned to a shortcut to your liking.
