In other words, hold down the Shift and Ctrl keys and press the minus key.</paragraph>

</caseinline><defaultinline>Ctrl</defaultinline></switchinline>+minus sign. The word is separated at this position when it is at the end of the line, even if automatic hyphenation for this paragraph is switched off.</paragraph>
