Configuring the Activation Shortcut
The Shortcut column in the Menu pane lists the specific activation shortcuts that have
been assigned to the Menus in the current
tooldial
Group. If a Shortcut has not been
assigned, that Menu will display “Select...” in the Shortcut field. Clicking on this
field will open a pop-up allowing you to specify the type of activation shortcut you
wish to designate for this particular Menu.

HOWEVER, EACH UNIQUE ACTIVATION SHORTCUT CAN ONLY BE ASSIGNED TO ONE
SPECIFIC MENU WITHIN EACH
