6 Click a command in the list to select it, then do one of the following:

Â Press the key or key combination you want to assign as the shortcut.

Â Drag the command from the list to the key on the keyboard layout that you want to

assign it to.

Note: The modifier key is already chosen by the tab selected at the top of the

Keyboard Layout window.

If the key combination you set is not currently used for another command, it’s assigned to the

command you selected. The keyboard shortcut you entered now appears next to the

command in the list. The icon for that command also appears on the appropriate key.

If the key combination is already used by another command, a message appears asking if

you want to reassign it. Click Yes. The keyboard shortcut you entered now appears next to

the command in the list. The icon for that command also appears on the appropriate key.

Note: If the command already has a shortcut assigned to it, you can delete the existing

one. If you don’t, the command will have two keyboard shortcuts assigned to it.

7 When you’re finished assigning new key combinations, do one of the following to

prevent further changes:

Â Click the Lock button.

Â Close the Keyboard Layout window.

Note: Customized keyboard layouts are automatically saved when you close the

Keyboard Layout window.

If you like, you can reassign commands to keys in the Keyboard Layout window.

However, you cannot move commands between modifier keys (tabs). If you make

mistakes as you set up commands, or simply want to clear the command for one or

two keys, see “Clearing and Restoring Keyboard Layouts” on page 150.

The keyboard shortcut

you entered appears

next to the command.
