Rather than using the Ribbon to apply a heading style to your text, you can accomplish the same thing using keyboard shortcuts. This can be a time-saver if you work with multiple styles. Plus you can apply heading styles to your text regardless of what Ribbon is active.
To apply a Normal Style, press the Ctrl + Shift + N keystroke combination.
To apply a Heading 1 Style, press the Ctrl + Alt + 1 keystroke combination.
To apply a Heading 2 Style, press the Ctrl + Alt + 2 keystroke combination.
To apply a Heading 3 Style, press the Ctrl + Alt + 3 keystroke combination.

Is there a shortcut for No Spacing?

Ctrl + Space – removes all manual styles
Ctrl + 0 – add or remove one line space preceding a paragraph
