Hotkey Editor
The Hotkey editor window allows for changing hot keys assigned to various functions in Cascadeur. It can be opened by selecting Hotkey editor from the Settings menu.
Overview
The Filter field is located at the top left corner of the window. As the name suggests, it can be used to find functions to which hot keys can be binded.
The window includes a number of lists, each containing names for several functions along with corresponding hot keys. The image above shows the Camera Orientation Tool list.
