It is about time there was an outlet for Europe codesharing QF
You will not be able to book a standalone QF codeshare AF operated flight to Heidelberg from LHR /LGW flight. QF will not have traffic rights.
QF have UK codeshares with BA, but they cannot be booked as standalone flights.
Need to be a tag on to a long haul or specific destination like Paris from Oz. But rules do vary a little.
With codeshare normal practise is only some nominated flights as codeshares and not all flights of that airline
So you will not be able to get QF SC's on an Eu short haul route.
As you other posts, getting QF SC's can be hard for Eu/UK resident who do not travel to Au-NZ or in Asia (for Jetstar SC'S) or other QF long haul routes.
Edit: sample Eu QF codeshare
