Rearrange Paragraphs Using Keystrokes

If you need to swap adjacent paragraphs in a document you're working on?

Click on the paragraph you'd like to move, hold down 'Shift-Alt' and use the up and down arrow keys to move the paragraph up or down.

Each press of the arrow key causes the selected paragraph to jump over one adjacent paragraph.
