    Anyone know if it’s possible to create a keyboard shortcut in AE where one doesn’t already exist? I’d especially like to make some in the Scripts pulldown menu.

    For the scripts, under General… you can assign shortcuts to “run script number #”. Other than that. I don’t think you can add a shortcut when there is none.

    I sometime ago wanted to add a shortcut to the “invert keyframes” command. The way I could get it to work was a script that executed that command and adding a shortcut to it. All you got to do is rename your scripts accordingly so they won’t change hierarchy when you add more to the scripts folder.

    How do you assign shortcuts to run script #? What do you mean under General?

    There are also a couple scripts that might help: Keyed Up and Launch Pad.

    My bad. I meant using KeyEd Up script, I thought you were referring to it from the beginning
