Home View Keyboard Shortcut???

Is there an option for a keyboard shortcut for:

 

"right click home button on view cube > set current view as home > fit to view"

 

I've searched the customization keyboard shortcut menu and haven't been able to find if this is even possible.

Right click on empty ribbon area.

Tried that, it's not doing anything. If I orbit/rotate the part or assembly and then press "H" (which is what i have the shortcut set to) it does nothing... Am I missing something?

H doesn't work.  Probably all single character key won't work.

Use Fn or add Alt, Ctrl.

So it's not letting me change it to shift+H, also I noticed when i click on that alias, at the bottom it says "Note: this command has a reserved shortcut (F6); an alias may be added to this command, but not a customized shortcut" (I'm not really worried about what the shortcut is, I'll just leave it as F6)

 

With that being said, I can just use F6 to return to home view, BUT this still doesn't solve what my original post was asking...can i set a shortcut to CHANGE the home view? Not just to return to the home view, but to actually set a new one.

 

It's very cumbersome having to make 3 extra clicks everytime I make a new part and need to set a new home view.

If you can find the command in the list, yes.

 

After a quick test, no.  Both are not a command.
