Shortcut Finder

Boldline

I agree that ideally, the interactive search option for keyboard shortcuts should be built into VS.
Final Cut Pro has a keyboard image that shows a virtual keyboard in the panel. Clicking on a key shows the shortcuts assigned to it with each combination of modifiers. This might be overkill - even just if you selected a keyboard shortcut from the interactive list, the keys used in that modifier would be highlighted in the keyboard

@Subpath It's not the same as a list included in the app, but I made a sortable HTML file that does this for the Mac shortcuts.
Just click any of the headers to sort by Command, Shortcut or Menu/Context.

Trouble is I don't have Windows here, so I'm not sure how to do a version for Windows. Just replace Cmd with Ctrl?

... Trouble is I don't have Windows here, so I'm not sure how to do a version for Windows ...

big thanks for the file
don't worry, i figure it out

As far as i know:

Mac ------ Pc (german)
Cmd ------ Ctrl (STRG)
Shift ------ Shift
Option/ALT ------ ALT

I also vote for a Shortcut Finder in VS
and like @Boldlines "Final Cut Pro virtual keyboard" the most

i dreamed about a shortcut search function.
where I get a List whats with Ctrl connected, or key combinations.

@Subpath Mac keyboards have the Control and the Command key, so for the Mac version these two can be used in the same shortcut.

Since Windows is different (the Windows key cannot be used in shortcuts AFAIK), I'm not sure how to change these.

But if somebody can send me the Windows shortcuts as a .CSV or Excel file (description, shortcut and menu/context), I can use that to make a sortable HTML table.

@b77

usual Ctrl, Shift, Alt will be used as Shortcut Keys on Windows
and combinations

i think the Windows-key is used for Windows OS commands only
like bring the Windows Start Menu up

@Subpath On the Mac version I can export the shortcuts as a .txt file from Keyboard Shortcuts > Shortcut Presets:

Can you do the same from Windows and send me the file? Just to make sure we didn't miss any of the shortcuts.

Subpath

@b77

I did not create this sorting from the text of your file.
If that is your assumption.

I created this sorting on basis of the original Standard VS Shortcut
Text file. Which I can export on Windows exactly the same way as
you can export it on the Mac.

But I can also send you my Standard VS Shortcuts as a Text file,
if you give me an email address.

Btw. nice new Profil Pic

@Subpath That's what I mean — send me the .txt file. I don't have access to a PC.

Btw. nice new Profil Pic

Made in VS, thanks!
