Oxygen XML Forum

Hey

I use <oXygen/> XML Author 11.2 for creating DITA-based documentation. I've just searched for a way to control the function "Insert Content Reference" via the keyboard. In the dialog box to assign menu shortcut keys, I did not find entries matching the functions in the "DITA" menu of XML Author. How can I control DITA menu functions via the keyboard?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards
Nicole

Hello,

The custom actions for document types(such as DITA) are found elsewhere.
Look in Options -> Preferences -> Document Type Association. Edit the DITA document type and duplicate it when asked. In the document type editing dialog go to Author -> Actions and look for the "Insert Content Reference" action(insert.conref). Edit it and go to the "Shortcut key" field where you can enter the desired shortcut.

Regards,
Adrian
