Command List Area

shortcuts for a menu set or command group.

Â Magnifying glass icon: Click to display commands alphabetically, along with their

keyboard shortcuts.

Â Search field: Enter a command or key to search for.

Â X icon: This icon appears on the right side of the search field only after you display

commands alphabetically. Click to display the command list by menu and function.

To view all commands alphabetically:

m Click the magnifying glass icon.

To view commands by menu set and command group function:

m Click the X icon.

Assigning Keyboard Shortcuts

Specifying shortcuts for commands is easy. You don’t have to set up the entire

keyboard with your preferred shortcuts—you can choose specific menu sets or

command groups. For example, you can specify keyboard shortcuts for all commands

in the File menu or for all render functions.

Important: Before you begin specifying keyboard shortcuts, make sure you choose the

appropriate language and input type. For more information, see “Using Different

Keyboards and Languages” on page 152.

To see which commands have a key or key combination assigned to them:

m Enter a key or key combination in the search field.

If you press the E key, all

commands that use that

key are shown.
