- Click in the text box to the left of the 'Set' button.
- Press a key-combination such as Ctrl and Shift and R. The text box will show Ctrl+Shift+R.
- Now click on the command in the scrollable list that you would like to be bound to Ctrl+Shift+R
- Now click on the 'Set' button. The binding will be set.
To clear an existing binding
- On the list of commands, click on the binding you want to clear.
- Click the 'Clear' button. The binding will be cleared.
Other Options
The remaining buttons on this preferences tab are:
- Defaults use this to restore the key bindings to their defaults.
- Save... to save the current key bindings to an xml file.
- Load... to load previously saved key bindings from an xml file.
See Keyboard Shortcut Reference for the default key bindings.
