I have something like this:
Hold[TraditionalForm[1/2 + x^2]]
And wish to change it to Input form with the use of code (that is, without clicking Cell > Convert To > InputForm)

$\begingroup$ If you look at Cell > Convert To > InputForm, it says right there the keyboard equivalent is shift-ctrl-i, at least on windows. $\endgroup$– Bill WattsCommented Jan 18, 2019 at 6:43

Does it fit your needs?
Block[{TraditionalForm},
RawBoxes @ ToString[ Hold @ TraditionalForm[1/2 + x^2], InputForm]
]
It is even more strict as terms were not reordered as in the first example.

ReleaseHold[Hold[TraditionalForm[1/2 + x^2]]][[1]]

$\begingroup$ It shows an Output form, that is 2D fraction instead of linear
1/2. What am I missing? $\endgroup$– KubaCommented Jan 18, 2019 at 7:34 -
$\begingroup$ Is
ReleaseHold[Hold[TraditionalForm[1/2 + x^2]]][[1]] // InputForm // Textok? $\endgroup$– JerryCommented Jan 18, 2019 at 7:44 -
$\begingroup$ Ask OP, maybe, it is not the same thing as OP's case + ConvertTo InputForm $\endgroup$– KubaCommented Jan 18, 2019 at 7:47
