A keyboard shortcut for the Shape Layer ‘Path’ property

This is something I use absolutely every single day, just like many motion designers: editing the path on a shape layer.
But unlike other properties, there’s no keyboard shortcut to access it. So you have to click the layer, then unfold the menus until you finally reach the path.

In my daily workflow, I found a little workaround: I keep ‘path’ in the search bar, so all I have to do is select the layer and hit search to reveal the path… but honestly, it still feels pretty archaic ^_^’

Adobe, if you’re listening, please give us this little shortcut, it would genuinely save us so many clicks. It would be such a time-saver in our daily workflows.

Thank you!!
