New dialog box for keyboard shortcuts

A new shortcut dialog has been developed for faster access to frequently used tools. The Quick Access Toolbar - Default Settings drop-down list contains the new Shortcuts tool. This opens the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box, where you can define keyboard shortcuts or modify the predefined keyboard shortcuts.

The area on the left lists the task areas of the Actionbar; the area on the right lists the tools of the selected task area and the shortcuts that have already been defined. You can find general tools without icons or tools that do not belong to a task area in the More tools or More tools without icons group.

The upper area of the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box contains a Search box. You can use this Search box to find tools across task areas.

When you can see the tool to which you want to assign a keyboard shortcut in the table on the right side, click in this line in the Shortcuts column and enter the required keyboard shortcut. If this keyboard shortcut is already in use, you will see a message.

Buttons in the dialog box

• Use Export to save the defined keyboard shortcuts as a *.shc file in any folder.
• Use Import to load a *.shc file. The tools then display the keyboard shortcuts imported.
• Use Reset to undo all changes, thus restoring the default settings.
• Use Save to save these user-specific settings to the registry.
