Selecting Your Keyboard Type
Keyboard shortcuts work best when you access the application from the dedicated account created when
you installed Smoke. In this case, the Autodesk dlu keyboard is selected by default. If you start Smoke from
a different account, you may notice some keyboard shortcut irregularities.
In the Keyboard Shortcut Editor you can also select the type of keyboard you are using to take advantage of
extra keys on certain keyboards.
When you select your keyboard, the onscreen keyboard is changed to reflect your choice, and entries in the
Keyboard Shortcut Catalogue are updated accordingly.
NOTE If a keyboard shortcut is set on a key not available for the keyboard selected, the Keyboard Shortcut Catalogue
displays the entry in black.
