Q:

Ctrl-Shift-P opens font dialog in Word 2010 instead of focusing on font size in toolbar

In older versions of MS Word (2000, 2003, etc) using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P would focus on (highlight) the font size box in the toolbar allowing me to change the font size.
In newer versions (2010) it instead opens the font dialog to have me select a font size.
While it's not overly inconvenient, is there a way to revert it to the old behavior where I can just modify the size without having a window come up?

A:

Microsoft Word 2010 does say that Ctrl+Shift+P is assigned to Font Size:

But this now opens the Font window. How intrusive!

To replicate the old functionality of Ctrl+Shift+P, you have to first press Alt...

then H...

and finally, F followed by S.
That's a lot of work! So, I wrote an AutoHotkey script to fix Ctrl+Shift+P:
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
#IfWinActive, Microsoft Word
^+p::
KeyWait, Ctrl
KeyWait, Shift
Send, {Alt}hfs
Exit

If you are unfamiliar with AutoHotkey, I've compiled the script for you. Just run it and it will stay in the system tray (Right click > Exit to close it).
