Assign multiple keyboard shortcuts to a command
You can assign multiple keyboard shortcuts for a single command. The Keyboard Customization dialog displays the keyboard shortcut as an editable button, which lets you change, add multiple shortcuts, or delete shortcuts.
Add more shortcuts
To add more shortcuts to a command, click to the right of an existing shortcut. If there is no existing shortcut, click anywhere in the Shortcut column. A new shortcut button is created to type the shortcut.
Find keyboard shortcuts
Find the keyboard shortcuts for a tool, button, or menu command by doing any of the following:
- For menu commands, look for the keyboard shortcut at the right of the command.
- For the most-used keyboard shortcuts not shown in tool tips or on menus, see the tables in this article. For a complete list of default and current shortcuts, choose Edit > Keyboard Customization (Windows) or Edit > Keyboard Customization (macOS).
- You can use the Search field in the Keyboard Customization dialog box to find specific commands quickly.
Customize or load keyboard shortcuts
You can set shortcuts to match shortcuts in other software you use. If other sets are available, you can choose them from the Set menu in the Keyboard Customization dialog box.
-
- In Windows, choose Edit > Keyboard Customization
- In macOS, choose Edit > Keyboard Customization
-
In the Keyboard Customization dialog box, choose an option from the menu:
Application
Displays commands found in the menu bar, organized by category.
Panels
Displays commands associated with panels and menus.
-
In the Command column, view the command for which you want to create or change a shortcut. If necessary, click the triangle next to the name of a category to reveal the commands it includes.
-
Click in the item’s shortcut field to select it.
-
Type the shortcut you want to use for the item. The Keyboard Customization dialog box displays an alert if the shortcut you choose is already in use.
-
Do one of the following:
- To erase a shortcut and return it to the command that originally had it, click Undo.
- To simply delete the shortcut you typed, click Clear.
-
Repeat the procedure to enter as many shortcuts as you want. When you’re finished, click Save As, type a name for your Key Set, and click Save.
Bemærk:The operating system reserves some commands. You cannot reassign those commands to Premiere Elements. Also, you cannot assign the plus (+) and minus (-) keys on the numeric keypad because they are necessary for entering relative timecode values. You can assign the minus (–) key on the main keyboard, however.
Delete or Remove a shortcut
To delete a shortcut, click 'x' in the editable shortcut button. Remove shortcuts
1. Do one of the following:
- In Windows, select Edit > Keyboard Customization
- In macOS, select Edit > Keyboard Customization
2. Do one of the following:
- To remove a shortcut, select the shortcut you want to remove and select Clear.
- To remove a set of shortcuts, choose the key set from the Set menu and select Delete. When prompted in the warning dialog box, select Delete to confirm your choice.
