Assigning shortcuts to Cursor Tools

Although certain groups of cursor tools are assigned keyboard shortcuts by default, you can assign new keyboard shortcuts to any cursor tool. By assigning the same shortcut to a group you can cycle through the selection using the shift key. For example, when assigning the P key to all of the pickers, you can cycle through the group using Shift+P.

1. Create a custom shortcut set.
   
   
2. From the Cursor Tools command, select the cursor group you want to change the shortcuts to (for example, Pickers).
   
   
3. Select each picker in turn, then click on the adjacent key column (the text box will turn from gray to black when active), and type P, for example.
   
   
4. Repeat for each cursor tool in the group.
   
   
5. When finished, click on Close to shut the dialog. All of the edits will be saved automatically.
