<title>Set keyboard shortcuts</title>
29
<cite date="2012-02-19" href="mailto:shaunm@gnome.org">Shaun McCance</cite>
30
<p>Define shortcuts, using Shortcuts tab in Keyboard settings. Provide
31
reference for what everything is (can group for conciseness). Explain
33
<p>Important: the window says "To edit a shortcut, click the row and hold
34
down the new keys or press Backspace to clear." This is actually wrong.
35
You have to click the row, then click again on the shortcut within the
36
row. File bug against control-center about the faulty message (or better,
37
about the confusing interaction), but make sure to explain correctly in
38
the help regardless.</p>
41
<p>To change the key or keys to be pressed for a keyboard shortcut:</p>
45
<p>Click your name on the top bar and select <gui>System Settings
47
<item><p>Open <gui>Keyboard</gui> and select the <gui>Shortcuts</gui> tab.</p>
50
<p>Select a category on the left side of the window, and the desired
51
action on the right.</p>
54
<p>Click the current shortcut definition on the far right.</p>
57
<p>Hold down the desired key combination or press <key>Backspace</key> to clear.</p>

<title>Pre-defined shortcuts</title>
64
<p>There are a number of pre-configured shortcuts that can be changed,
65
grouped into these categories:</p>

<title>Custom shortcuts</title>
402
<p>To create your own keyboard shortcut:</p>
406
<p>Select <gui>Custom Shortcuts</gui> on the left side of the window.</p>
409
<p>Click the <gui>+</gui> button. The <gui>Custom Shortcut</gui>
410
window will appear.</p>
413
<p>Write a <gui>Name</gui> to identify the shortcut, and a
414
<gui>Command</gui> to run an application, then click <gui>Apply</gui>.
415
For example, if you wanted the shortcut to open Rhythmbox, you could name
416
it <input>Music</input> and use the <input>rhythmbox</input> command.</p>
419
<p>Double click where it says <gui>Disabled</gui> on the far right, and
420
then hold down the desired shortcut key combination.</p>
423
<p>The command name that you type should be a valid system command. You
424
can check that the command works by opening a Terminal and typing it in
425
there. The command that opens an application may not have exactly the
426
same name as the application itself.</p>
428
<p>If you want to change the command that is associated with a custom keyboard
429
shortcut, double-click the <em>name</em> of the shortcut. The
430
<gui>Custom Shortcut</gui> window will appear, and you can edit the command.</p>
