Hey.

I want to open a visual shortcut  key editor. Using Ctrl + Alt + '.

Nothing happens.

I opened a text file keyboard shortcut. There is no command for such a shortcut.

  How to add this command?

    I am not really sure what you want, but AE can have issues with non-US keyboards so that´s probably the reason why it fails since you have a Russian (?) keyboard.

    In After Effects, go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts and manually type keyboard in the search dialog. Then click on the shortcut to give it another shortcut such as for example Ctrl+F2. Click OK.

    If you do that Ctrl+F2 should open the Keyboard Settings dialog. Is that what you want?

    Thank you. But that is not the problem. I am working on it. When I decide, I will definitely tell you. I have a year. I do not have the shortcut option. I make all the changes in a text file. I want to add a visual keyboard option. But there is no time. I can write that the issue is resolved. But I don't do that. I want to tell you later how I solved the question. I needed a team name. I found the name myself. I work on.

    Hi igord,

    The ideal method to open the editor for keyboard shortcuts, select Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts (Ctrl+Alt+'). If it is not working for you please try resetting the preference and then test the issue: Reset After Effects Preferences | Welcome to kevinmonahan.net

    Let us know if it helps. Also, have a look at this article: After Effects keyboard shortcuts reference

    Thanks,

    Shivangi

    Which version of AE are you using?

    And please provide a screen capture of the Text File, in your operating system OR the content of this "Text File".

    I do not want to reset the settings. I want the name of the command that invokes the visual keyboard shortcut editor.

    Thank you.
