Hello community,
I have a disturbing problem that is making me lose so much time ...
For years I've always modified certain shortcuts in order to work faster one-handed
essentially: “create a radial gradient” from CMD+ to Shift+M )
It seems to me that everything was done in the LR menus.
But I can't find anything
Even in Apple's Settings, it doesn't work ..putting the title of the action / en français beau mettre le titre de Savez-vous comment faire... Please help me if you have any ideas.

sorry ... traduction problem ..

bonjour la communauté,
J'ai un soucis, perturbant, qui me fait perdre tellement de temps ...
Depuis quelle années J'ai toujours modifié certains raccourcis afin de travailler plus vite à une main
essentiellement: "créer un dégradé radial " de CMD+ à Maj+M )
Il me semble que tout se faisait dans les menus LR
Lais je ne trouve plus rien
Même dans les Réglages Apple, ça ne marche pas ..en mettant le titre de l'action
Savez-vous comment faire.. Merci infiniment de m'aider si vous avez des idée

"“create a radial gradient” from CMD+ to Shift+M"

 

The default keyboard shortcut for the menu command Tools > Create New Mask > Radial Gradient is already Shift M, when running LR in both English and French.

 

Did you mean that you want to change the shortcut for Radial Gradient from Shift M to Cmd M? That works using Mac's System Settings on my LR 14.2 / Mac OS 15.2:

 

After making that change, it shows up in LR's menu Tools > Create New Mask > Radial Gradient:

 

If this doesn't help, please describe precisely what you've done with System Settings and Radial Gradient and what you're observing.

I'm sure It wasn't done in the Lightroom Classic menus, but in MacOS. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchlp2262/mac
Another option is a dedicated utility, like Keyboard Maestro.
