kanihoncho Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Is it possible to switch keyboard commands for text only? I have a feeling the answer is no . . . Is it possible to take Command +V for "Paste" and assign it to "Paste without Format" and vice-versa? Or is this a general action that applies to everything rather than being contextual? To me it is a more useable than the existing setup . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried in APub to make sure it works. Perhaps you have to play around a little to make sure it really works becaus CTRL+V is such a common command that it may be confusing to see it behaving different. d.

Yes, you can easily do that. So for instance in AD set the first Shortcuts item to "Designer" & the second one to "Edit." You should see a long list of all the possible shortcuts on the Edit menu, arranged in the same order as in that menu: So you can just swap out the shortcuts for those two items to whatever you want, & as long as they do not conflict with any other shortcuts (as indicated by a warning triangle) they should worj=k fine.

On the other hand, I'm not sure that using Paste Without Format to paste a non-text object would cause any problems.
