Options Window: Keymap
See Also
You use this panel in the Options window to set the keyboard shortcuts for the IDE.
You can change between pre-configured shortcut sets, create a new shortcut set, or
change the keyboard shortcut for an individual command.
You use this window as follows:
- Choose an existing keyboard set from the drop-down list at the top of
the dialog box.
- Click Duplicate to duplicate the currently selected shortcut set, then
edit the shortcuts in the new copy.
- Select the command for which you want to change a keyboard shortcut and
click Add or Remove in the Shortcuts section.
As you press the key sequence, the correct syntax for that sequence automatically
appears in the text field. If you simultaneously hold down the Alt key,
the Control key, and the J key, "Alt+Ctrl+J" appears. To use a Backspace
or Tab key in the shortcut, use the buttons at the bottom of the dialog
box. You can only specify a keyboard shortcut that is not being used by
another command.
Notes:
- To set keyboard shortcuts for recorded macros, go to the bottom of the Editing
section and select the macro name. Then edit the keyboard shortcut.
- The keyboard shortcut sets for other products do not necessarily provide
all of the functionality that those producs provide. For example, there
is no Visual Block editing mode in NetBeans like there is in Emacs.
