Paragraph styles with pre-populated text

Dorico
1

Is there a way to invoke a paragraph style with pre-populated text?

What I want to do is create a paragraph style for example “Vamp indications,” assign it to a keep command, perhaps ctr-v, and then instruct it to populate the word “Vamp” when I hit ctr-v.

I can achieve this with macros programmed outside of dorico but I was wondering if there is any way to do this natively.

Thanks!

There’s no built-in way to tell Dorico to create a new text item with default text, no.

You could create a Playing Technique with that text, of course.
