  Hi there, I’d like to implement a shortcut that programatically can open the designer ribbon drop down menu (e.g. simulating if a user clicks it, similar to how Excel shortcuts that navigate the ribbon would work)

  Here’s example of where it’d be nice to programmatically open up the paste menu using a shortcut

  Hi,

  We’re not certain if this can be achieved, but we’re checking with the development team regarding this requirement. The internal tracking ID is SJS-32235. I’ll update you as soon as I receive any information.

  Hi,

  Currently, this feature is not supported, and there is no effective workaround to achieve it. It is already in our product backlog with the internal track ID “SJS-11819”. There is no ETA for this at the moment, but we will update you as soon as we receive any information.

  However, the developers mentioned that if you want to perform quick actions using the keyboard, you can try using the Command Palette feature:
