Hi,

A framework defines a certain validation and editing behavior of Oxygen when opening a certain type of XML file.
If the framework defines custom Author actions for that XML file type, those actions can define menu shortcut keys.
But a framework does not have influence on global Oxygen actions like "Copy/Paste or Undo/Redo" for example.
As possible alternatives, in the Oxygen Preferences->"Menu Shortcut Keys" page you can switch the page to "Project Options" and maybe share the same project with all the team members.
Or you can share a custom default settings XML with the other users: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... tions.html

Hi Garrett,

We store our Oxygen environment configuration in our Oxygen project file (the .xpr file). This includes customizations like
  • Hotkeys
  • Menu/toolbar customizations
  • DITA authoring settings
  • Editing window settings
This .xpr file is stored in a Git repository that all writers share. When I make a change to the .xpr file, all writers automatically inherit the changes. This system works quite well for us.
