  • Modifying keyboard shortcuts in AE

    Posted by Andy Bay on February 23, 2006 at 12:16 pm

    Every other Adobe software seems to have the possibility to edit and make custom keyboard shortcuts, but I can`t find it anywhere in After effects. Does anyone know if it`s possible to do somehow? When I searched information about this, someone talked about modifying a text-file inside the program folder, but he was not sure if it even worked. The AE manual doesn`t say anything about this subject. If someone knows about this, please tell me!
    This would be important for me because I have a scandinavian keyboard, and that`s why it`s impossible for me to use some of the default AE keyboard shortcuts. So if it`s not possible yet, please Adobe include this feature in your next release!

    You need to edit the keyboard shortcuts file. There is no panle/ window to do it on the interface.

    Thank you for your reply! Could you tell me the name of the file that I have to modify? I looked and looked in all the folders that are inside After Effects program folder, but found nothing like that! If it matters, I have AE 7 pro.
