Bhikkhu Pesala Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 The usual issues with missing access keys. File Menu Personas > (Could be P, and use T for Print, but leaving it with none is OK as Enter works) N New Ctrl N B New from Clipboard O Open… Ctrl+O R Open Recent > C Close S Save Ctrl+S A Save As… H Save History With Document F Open Folder in Explorer L Place… E Export… D Document Setup… P Print… Ctrl+P X Exit I will add new posts in this thread as I work through the menus, but you could just do them all, assuming that all items need a unique access key. If there's not enough letters to go round, the menu is too long and needs to be split.

Alfred Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Personas > (Could be P, and use T for Print, but leaving it with none is OK as Enter works) Leaving it with none is probably a better option than changing the access key for Print to something less obvious than P. Most users who prefer keyboard shortcuts will quickly get used to bypassing the 'File > Personas' submenu, going straight to the Alt key combinations for switching from one persona to another (although it isn't immediately apparent to me why the default accelerator for the Draw persona is Alt+R instead of Alt+D).

Bhikkhu Pesala Posted July 9, 2016 Author Share Posted July 9, 2016 View Menu Assistant Manager… (Managers need a submenu) Guides Manager… Snapping Manager… Grid and Axis Manager… Although there are plenty of free access keys (B, F, J, K, Q, and Y) I don't see any better way than duplicating the M shortcut to select a "Managers" submenu with these items. A Assistant Manager… G Guides Manager… S Snapping Manager… X Grid and Axis Manager… Leaving menu items with no access key almost forces the use of the mouse. At least with duplicated access keys, only one extra keystroke is needed: Alt V, M, M, Enter, to access the Managers submenu, and Alt V, M, Enter to access the View Modes submenu.
