5. Alternatively, you can use the search function in the dialog to find the desired
item.
For a description of how to use the search function, see below.
6. When you have found and selected the desired item, click in the “Type in Key”
field and enter a new key command.
You can choose any single key or a combination of one or several modifier keys
([Alt]/[Option], [Ctrl]/[Command], [Shift]) plus any key. Just press the keys you want
to use.
7. If the key command you enter is already assigned to another item or function,
this is displayed below the “Type in Key” field.
You can either ignore this and proceed to assign the key command to the new
function instead, or you can select another key command.
8. Click the Assign button above the field.
The new key command appears in the Keys List.
IMPORTANT
If the key command you enter is already assigned to another function, you will get a
warning message asking if you really want to reassign the command to the new
function.
9. Click OK to exit the dialog.
NOTE
You can set up several different key commands for the same function. Adding a key
command to a function that already has another key command will not replace the key
command previously defined for the function. If you wish to remove a key command,
see below.
Searching for key commands
If you want to know which key command is assigned to a certain function in the
program, you can use the Search function in the Key Commands dialog.
PROCEDURE
1. Click in the search text field at the top left of the dialog and type in the function
for which you want to know the key command.
This is a standard word search function, so you should type the command as it is
spelled in the program. Partial words can be used; to search for all quantize related
commands, type “Quantize”, “Quant”, etc.
2. Click the Search button (the magnifying glass icon).
The search is conducted and the first matching command is selected and displayed
in the Commands list below. The Keys column and the Keys list show the assigned
key commands, if any.
3. To search for more commands containing the word(s) you entered, click the
Search button again.
4. When you are done, click OK to close the dialog.
