Customize Keyboard Shortcuts

I know that your design team probably had some rationale when defining shortcut keys for actions. For example, Z does not bring up the zoom tool, A is used for artboard creation instead of direct selection, etc. On the And that's fine - you can't design for the convenience of every user. But it'll be super duper awesome if you can let us define our own shortcuts... and sooner rather than later please.

    A very basic feature... A modern program must have this.
    I am leaning more and more towards Figma.

    Thats a serious problem. Cmon you gotta add that. Besides, I really dont understand why some Adobe Softwares have specific features and others do not. Like, dont you communicate internally or what else is the reason for not just implementing eg. the features from photoshop to xd? I dont get that..

    Can't believe it's still a backlog - the product manager in charge is clearly does not understand the end user (in this case UX designer) needs and workflows associated with these needs. If you were to do proper use research, you would uncover that this feature is really important to the design professionals and not being able to customise (create new) shortcuts will make us want to switch to a different product.

    Could you please provide the same shortcut settings in all Adobe programs? Working on a non US Keyboard also makes it even harder to adjust.

    I am personally struggling with the "Pan" shortcut, default bound on mouse wheel. I never click my mouse wheel and have a mouse that is partially broken (exactly the mouse wheel click doesn't work)

    Still in the backlog, since 2016? Adobe XD seems to be a contradiction of good user experience :(

    Yes please allow.
    For exemple, It would really really be useful to have a shortcut that allow users to select (in the prototype), ALL the links of ONLY one artboard. I've been searching for that and the assistance support told me that this shortcut is not available

    I've posted this idea about the prototyping mode, here is where users can vote for this idea of particular short-code : https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests/suggestions/42900885-a-shortcut-to-select-at-same-time-all-the-links-of

    Thank you for allowing us to have a voice.

    Yes, please allow. Some of us use other Adobe products and the A key for a new artboard should be able to be disabled. Please. Jeez 2016???

    I can't believe that this has been "in the backlog" since 2016. I'm a new XD user and the clunky interface is driving me nuts! How MANY votes does it take to get something fixed?

    ショートカットがカスタマイズできず非常に不便です
    ペンタブレットのショートカット設定を起動するたびにXDに合わせて変更する必要があります
    カスタマイズ機能の追加を切にお願いします

    Why can't you just provide the same settings/possibilities in all adobe programs? Especially memorizing the different shortcuts in every program is very exhausting...

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Please be serious, we are paying users ! Fix the shortcuts customization in XD ! Thanks.

  • Gerrit commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    This is still not fixed!?!? This is a 4 year old request to correct your own ever growing inconsistency. Adobe, your biggest advantage is, that people can expand and change fields (like from print to web design) while sticking to your software, because it’s familiar. I was just about to start with Xd, but not like this.

    Just a quick example how many shortcuts I have to remember for the single action of placing an image: InDesign: cdm+D; Illustrator: cmd+shift+P; Xd: cmd+shift+i; Premiere Pro/After Effects: cmd+i; Photoshop: no shortcut.

    Do you think this is funny? Do you think I have a good time using your software? Do you think I will stick with you, when I don’t need InDesign anymore? And didn’t you invest in Xd to keep your InDesign users who are switching from print to web?

    Why can't increase/decrease text be the same shortcut as in all other adobe programs? Why make it more difficult for everyone?

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    And please unify the basic shortcuts in all your programs! You are always cross working.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    i don't understand why they don't fix that yet. Really important feature to have.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    I would also welcome the option custom shortcuts. This function miss me... :((
