Audition Family: Is the Visual representation of the "computer keyboard" depicting an ACTUAL graphic, or is the use of the keyboard just for the videos?  Is it IS real, please tell me how to access it.  Looks very intuitive and easy to customize the shortcuts but I cannot locate it.  Many thanks!

Yes it is an actual image of the keyboard layout with interactive keys. You access it from Keyboard Shortcuts at the bottom of the Edit menu. There are some restrictions on whether it shows up or not depending on what operating system you are running I believe.

OK, let's get the difference:

I'm on Windows 7 here and with Audition 11.0.2.2. And I'm missing that tab.

This is the current release - 11.1.1.3 and Windows 10 Pro. Windows version will make no difference, but upgrading to the current Audition version almost certainly will!

Yeah for sure! I do not see the upgrades, so I need to uninstall/install what I'm currently doing... Let's look what happens! :-)

But that keyboard shows a US keyboard. My layout is a Swiss (Luxembourg) keyboard. It would be great to be able to show my keyboard layout with my shortcuts. Some shortcuts are not workable like [ and ] as they ask for "AltGr" key modifiers. When I reassign them to è and " (which is where [ and ] are also located), I do not see them on the visual keyboard (sic). I've made a bug entry for that. Americans have sometimes tendency to forget the rest of the world!

Now my question is: Has anyone made key reassignments available for different keyboards, so that I do not need to modify all the nice keys (fortunately for character keys, there are only 2 characters exchanged (z and y), so jkl work as expected.

So none of the alternative keyboards shown under the 'layout' tab in the top RH corner correspond to what you want? Wouldn't entirely surprise me as there are only eleven of them...
