Set a keyboard shortcut for "Lock children"


Recommended Posts

  • Staff

Hi saraheagle :)

Unfortunately there's no shortcut option currently for Lock Children. I'll move this thread to Feature Requests for our devs to consider adding in a future update!

Please Note: I am now out of the office until Tuesday 2nd April on annual leave.

If you require urgent assistance, please create a new thread and a member of our team will be sure to assist asap.

Many thanks :)

On Mac, as long as the Lock Children checkbox is visible on the toolbar, it can be toggled via UI scripting.
And UI scripts can be triggered by a keyboard shortcut, either via Automator Services plugins, or via 3rd party macro apps like Keyboard Maestro.

For more details see 

For v2, replace "Affinity Designer" with "Affinity Designer 2" in the AppleScript code.

No. Still many actions for which no shortcut can be assigned.

Yes, and that's a shame. It's really valuable in serious workflows.
