Assigning key commands
You can assign key commands to many menu items and functions, for example, if you use a menu item frequently and want to be able to access it quickly but it does not have a key command assigned by default. You can also change existing key commands.
Procedure
- Press Ctrl/Cmd-, to open Preferences.
- Click Key Commands in the category list.
-
Search for the name of a function and select it.
For particularly long names, you can hover over them to see a tool tip.
-
Optional: Press Remove Key Command if the function already has an assigned key command.
If you assign a new key command without removing an existing one, you can use either key command.
- Click the Press shortcut input field.
- Press the key command that you want to assign on your computer keyboard.
-
Click Add Key Command.
The key command is added to the list of assigned key commands.
- Click Apply, then Close.
Result
The key command you pressed is assigned to the selected menu item or function. You can use it immediately.
