What is the first step when creating a new keyboard shortcut?

• A. Click New Set
• B. Select Product Area
• C. Click Command Name
• D. Click in the New Shortcut box

Answer: (A)

Setting up a new keyboard shortcut starts with creating a dedicated container for your custom keys. Click New Set to establish a fresh shortcut set, which keeps your changes separate from the built-in defaults and makes them easy to manage or revert. Once the set exists, you would then choose the appropriate Product Area, select the specific Command Name, and finally click in the New Shortcut box to enter the keystroke. Beginning with New Set is essential because there has to be a place to store the new shortcut before you can assign it.
