I want to create a keyboard shortcut. From LR Classic I open files as smart objects in photoshop quite a bit. I want to make a keyboard shortcut like the command E shortcut so I don't have to go to the right click>edit in>open as smart object all the time...I want one click option for this task...please help!!

    Not possible. There is no interface, options, to customize, change, keyboard shortcuts in LR.

    I can't believe for half a second that I'm the only one who would like this to be possible...


    On Mac, it's easy to define a shortcut for the menu command Photo > Edit In > Open As Smart Object in Photoshop, using the Mac's System Preferences: https://www.lightroomqueen.com/custom-keyboard-shortcuts/

    On Windows, you'll have to use a third-party utility like the free AutoHotkey, which is very flexible but moderately annoying to configure.
