Create a Copy of a Command Key Sequence

You can create a copy of a command key sequence and duplicate the settings for a similar function in CA SymDump®.

Follow these steps:

1. Select Window, Preferences.
   The Preferences dialog opens.

2. Expand General and select Keys.
   The Preferences dialog opens the Keys page. This page lists the default key mappings for all commands and functions in CA SymDump®.

3. Select a scheme from the Scheme drop-down list. Choose CA SymDump®, Default, or Emacs scheme.
   The Keys page lists the command key sequences for the selected scheme. A table displays binding, action, and category for each command key sequence.

4. Scroll or type the name of the command key sequence.
   The Preview pane shows the details such as name of the selected key sequence, description, binding, event when the selected key works, and conflicts information.

5. Click Copy Command.
   A new command key sequence is added to the pane showing the command key sequences.

6. Change the default settings for the selected key to suit your needs:

   • Name
     Displays a description for the command key sequence. This is a non-editable field.

   • Description
     Displays a description for the command key sequence. This is a non-editable field.

   • Binding
     Displays the binding key combination for the command key sequence. Type the key sequence you want to assign to the function in the Key Sequence, Name field. Click the arrow and select Backspace, Tab, or Shift+Tab to set key combinations for the selected key sequence.

   • When
     Displays a list of actions for command key sequences. Select the action when you want to initiate a selected key sequence from the drop-down list.

   • Conflicts
     Displays a conflicting key sequence that uses the same key combination as the selected command key sequence. Change the value in the Binding field.

7. Click Apply to save the settings.

8. Click OK.

CA SymDump® saves the changes and closes the Preferences dialog. The changes are used in all succeeding sessions unless you change the preferences again.
