Selecting Text to Delete: Ctrl Shift Home / Ctrl Shift End

[harolda69757889]

Hi. I'm very much an amateur user of Audition.

When I edit a file I almost always delete the beginning and end and save the middle. More or less. I always find the spot where I want the file to begin. From there I use Ctrl Shift Home to delete the portion of the file at the beginning that I want to delete. When I find the spot where I want the file to end I use Ctrl Shift End to delete the portion of the file that comes after the part I want.

Problem:

New laptop does not have a home or end key. Home is on the left arrow and End is on the right arrow. To use these keys as Home and End you have to use the Alt key. But you can't select text using the Ctrl Shift Alt Arrow.

Any ideas on a work around?

Thanks.

The most straightforward one is to change the keyboard shortcuts for those two commands - well worth it if you use them a lot. For instance you could simply use z for the first one, and x for the second:

Save the changes as a custom layout. Now it's even easier than it was!

Thank you. Could you point me to a place where there are instructions on how to create keyboard shortcuts?
