how to change or disable keyboard shortcuts

Is it possible to change or just disable some Captivate keyboard shortcuts? In particular, Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S and Ctrl+Alt+L ? In general in Windows the Ctrl+Alt is used for language specific characters. It is rather counterproductive to copy paste all text through Notepad in order to have language specific characters in Captivate text.

    In Adobe Captivate 9 (and earlier) there is still NO WAY to change Application Keyboard Shortcuts. (You can change Recording shortcuts in Preferences).

    This is particularly frustrating (for me) because of the Command Y shortcut for Redo (very Microsoft / Macromedia like). I am an advanced Adobe user (and instructor) — when I encounter a shortcut that isn't "standard" (for Adobe products) I usually go to Edit > Keyboard shortcuts and change the Redo shortcut to Command Shift Y (like all the other Adobe applications I use: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat, Dreamweaver, Animate, Muse, etc.). This is NOT an OPTION in Captivate. STILL

    As Rick suggested above, I can send in a feature request or bug report, using the link below. I suggest anyone who reads this thread does the same.
