How can I search for and locate the documentation that explains how to assign custom keyboard shortsuts to commands or tools?

Fusion 360 Search Fail.pngI have been to the Fusion 360 support site and when I search for custom keyboard shortcuts all I get is a reference to a YouTube video for Inventor.

How would I locate this information for Fusion 360?

AFAIK this is not possible in Fusion 360.

But you might try S on your keyboard.

I have seen posts related to this being added to Fusion 360 in 2018, but I am unable to find any documentation yet.

As far as I know you can only set custom keyboard shortcuts by clicking on the 3 dots in menus.

Don't think there's a single place (dialog) you can see and edit them.

Please forgive me. I read the headline and did not scroll down to find later that it gave a description of how to accomplish it.

I am not one to search and scroll. I sorta thought that once introduced, the feature would be included in the documentation. After two years at least. Is there no documentation team who will update the search terms?

Apparently Autodesk and I diverge when it comes to our separate understandings of what documentation is.

Scrolling is tedious. I prefer searching.

Thank you @HughesTooling  I have since found a Screencast included in the 'News" post from 2018 (see link below). But what I was hoping for is that this information would be discoverable by searching the Fusion 360 documentation.

I think maybe the help has not been linked up correctly. On this page there's a link to "Learn how to Change keyboard shortcuts" but it takes you to "Set your Preferences" that has nothing on keyboard shortcuts as far as I can see! @Phil.E  Can you take a look at this?

Think the link above should go to this page.
