Keyboard Shortcuts Free Plug-in for InDesign and InCopy CS3 Now Available
DTP Tools and InDesignSecrets.com today jointly announced the release of the free Keyboard Shortcuts plug-in for InDesign and InCopy CS3. The Keyboard Shortcuts plug-in was designed by David Blatner and DTP Tools to help you find and assign shortcuts quickly and easily. The plug-in is free of charge and both Mac OS and Windows versions are available.
"Every InDesign power user knows the best way to be really efficient in this program is to use keyboard shortcuts," noted David Blatner, a noted InDesign guru and long-time publishing industry expert. "But it’s always been a hassle to find or change keyboard shortcuts in InDesign. This plug-in makes it easy."
Sandee Cohen, internationally known trainer and the author of the Adobe InDesign Visual Quick Start Guide, has been using the plug-in and says, "Brilliant! This is everything I need to quickly add and change keyboard shortcuts."
Key Features
When you choose Keyboard Shortcuts from the Window menu, the Keyboard Shortcuts plug-in opens a floating panel (similar in design to other
InDesign panels). The panel lets you:
- Use a dynamic search field to quickly find which keyboard shortcut is assigned to each feature.
- "Reverse lookup" to find which feature is associated with the shortcut you press.
- Quickly add/remove shortcuts.
- Add/delete custom shortcut sets.
- Export your custom shortcut sets to share with others.
- Filter out hundreds of commands with no current shortcut.
- Get immediate feedback on which custom shortcut set is active.
