In the Word Options dialog box , select Customize Ribbon in the menu bar and then select Customize as shown below.
Now a new dialog box opens, which is the Customize Keyboard dialog box . Here, we will set up 3 items:
- Categories : name of the command you want to create a shortcut for.
- Press new shortcut key : where to create a shortcut key for the command.
- Current keys : old shortcuts that were previously installed.
To create a shortcut, select the command in the Categories section , then enter the shortcut into Press new shortcut key (enter the shortcut using the keyboard, do not write the shortcut name). Then select Assign to confirm.
Below is an example of creating a shortcut for the Design Tab command with the keyboard shortcut being Ctrl + D.
After selecting Assign , the newly created shortcut will be moved to the Current keys section .
Click Close to complete. So you have finished creating the shortcut.
If you select a command and see the shortcut appear in the Current keys section , it means that this command has a shortcut previously set. If you want to keep it the same, ignore it. If you want to change it, enter a new one in the Press new shortcut key section , then press Assign .
