1 General Approach

Users can adapt the keyboard shortcut settings to their specific needs. The CODESYS Development System
provides a number of default shortcuts. These shortcuts can be modified via the menu option
"Tools/Customize…/Keyboard". Before assigning a new value to the field "Shortcuts for selected command",
make sure that the field "Press shortcut keys" is filled, then press the button "Assign". If the assignment is no
longer needed, the shortcut can be removed by pressing the "Remove"-button.
