To remove a keyboard shortcut from a command

You can remove a keyboard shortcut including the default keyboard shortcuts from any command.

For example, you may want to remove the keyboard shortcuts you no longer use or to remove a keyboard shortcut so that you can replace it with another one that you prefer.

If you remove a default keyboard shortcut from a command, an asterisk (*) appears before the command name shown in the Command list to indicate the keyboard shortcut associated with the command has changed.

Note: When you remove a keyboard shortcut from a command, you modify the keyboard shortcut set to which the command belongs, either the (Default) set or an existing customized set. As a result, Designer adds another instance of the keyboard shortcut set to the Set list with the word (Modified) appended to the set name to indicate the set has been changed. To save the changes you make, you must save the associated keyboard shortcut set.

If you do not save the changes you make to a keyboard shortcut set, Designer retains the changes until you select another set in the Set list. When you select another keyboard shortcut set, Designer prompts you to save the changes you previously made to the (Default) or customized set.
