Hello all ...

Been a year or so since I was using Inkscape.  I was giving Affinity Designer a try.  It's OK, but I do like Inkscape.

Reminds me of my Macromedia Freehand days.

Now that Inkscape 1.2 is alive and well, I'll give a try.

If someone can point me to a good tutorial on Youtube or Inkscape, please do so.

First think is I want to set up my keyboard shortcuts.

I just can't seem to get it.  Let's say I want to change the shortcut for Preference.

I type it in the search box, and nothing.  I have to drill down and look for it.  Same with Document Preference and others.

I must be missing something or doing something wrong.

Also, I though you could sort the shortcuts by pressing the Shortcut header.

Anyway, ask me some questions about what I am doing.

Thanks for listening.

There are a couple of shortcuts that are blocked from being changed.

The shortcut for Edit>Preferences is one of these.

For everything else.

If you navigate to Edit>Preferences>Keyboard ( you can use the search field when you get there )

Once there, clicking on the Shortcut column entry for that feature, it will say New Accelerator....

Then you can press your desire key combination

Thanks for getting back with me.

I was finally able to find Preferences and set it to what I was used to.

What is puzzling to me is why I can't get search to work.

I would like to change document properties.  It is not under the File label.  So where is it?

Won't show up with a search.

I must still be missing something.

I thought that pressing the shortcut header would sort all the shortcuts.  I guess not.  Seems like that is the way to set them.

Thanks ...

Is this what you need?

Yes, that is what I am looking at.

I think I might have just figured it out.  After a search, I was not seeing any hits.

I guess I need to click each little triangle on the left to open it up and find the results of the search.

Is that how it works?

I wish there was a open all to show all the commands!

Oh well, I can find a list of commands somewhere else.

I understand that by double clicking under the shortcut heading will give you the new accelerator token.

Thanks for checking in.
