Is there a way to navigate through window and menu options with keyboard shortcuts?

Question

Illustrator version 26.3. 1AutoHotkey  v1.1.34.03logitech MX keyRazer razer cynosa v2  I am trying to configure a hot key that changes the anchor type from corner to round or vice versa. Correct me if I am wrong, but I have only found the opinion to do so in the appearance window. From my understanding, there are no direct shortcuts in the keyboard shortcuts window. Since there is no direct way to change it, is there a roundabout way of doing it? For example, Since I don't like using the reflect tool, I have a hotkey set up for reflecting ctrl+alt+shift +r (shortcut to open reflect window), tab, tab, tab, enter this is binded to a key on my keyboard.  Is there a way to do something similar or easier to do this? Or is there a way to navigate  through menus and windows using only the keyboard? Thanks,Kyle

Hello @Kylemats,

Thanks for reaching out. Some menu commands might not be addressable using the keyboard, and you might need to click on the actual button. However, it is quite possible to use AutoHotKey (MouseMove / MouseClick) if you want to do it.

Disclaimer: We at Adobe highly recommend using extensions and third-party apps only when required. It may cause performance issues like slowness, problems with keyboard shortcuts, etc. AutoHotKey is a third-party application, and we have minimal support for third-party apps.

I hope it helps.

Thanks,

Anubhav
