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.

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...

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

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?

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

Why you introduce tons of features that are "only" nice to have, but nothing that is just basic for design programs and in your other softwareprojects as illustrator there for years now?

Admin I'm also struggling with the latest update turning the £ symbol into a keyboard shortcut :(
Would hope that I could change this. -

Admin!
You just released shortcuts for switching between Design, Prototype and Share. But the commands [Option] and 1, 2 and 3 on a mac with swedish keyboard settings are used for typing ©, @ and £ respectively. And now, when I want to type any of those characters XD switches to one of the viewing modes instead.
Could you disable this functionality when users are typing in an active text area?
