outdent (backwards tab)

Hi! I just got a magic keyboard to go with my ipad but I am having trouble with the backwards tab option. With my macbook or any other keyboards I’ve used before, with shift + tab I would be able to do a outdent but for some reason it’s not working with my new keyboard. (A tab works and indents perfectly.) Does anyone know how to fix this?


Thanks.

Hello zxcv125,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you are trying to outdent using your Magic Keyboard paired with iPad.


Are you typing in a certain app when trying this keyboard shortcut? Try using Command-Left Bracket ([) which decreases the indent level of text or list items. We found that shortcut and other from Keyboard shortcuts for Pages on iPad.


Take care.
