Hi @defaultros7gk2084t6:

Are you trying to customize the paper size of one (or several) pages within an existing InDesign document without changing the others? It's a multi-step process that could be handled by a script, not a shortcut. I'll add the script tag so that the scripting folks will see this.

Hi Barb

Thanks for posting. I have a lot of different custom page sizes. Because I have so many sizes in the list, the custom page size option is only visible if I click down past all the sizes. Without creating a script I thought I could add it as a shortcut to save time.

Page tool - SHIFT+P is not what you looking for?

Yes it is! I feel stupid. 

Thanks. Now to figure out what to do with these extra 5mins every day.

Ah, sorry if I complicated things. The InDesign tools have tooltips that will display when you hover over them, unless they were disabled in Prefs > Interface > Cursor & Gesture Options > Tooltips. Here is a list of all of them for the next time this comes up.

Glad you are back on track.
