Change a shortcut
Open Settings → Keyboard shortcuts. The page shows the combinations for your platform. Search by command name or by keys, select a combination, and press the replacement keys. Press Esc to cancel recording.
If another command already uses the combination, Schemo names that command and offers Reassign. Use Back to the default beside a command to restore one combination, or Reset all to restore every default. The sidebar of the settings page counts how many combinations you have changed.
