where did 'set normal angle' go in 2017 update 3?
I can clearly see it in 2016 under the mesh display menu

Hi,

 

It was renamed to "Soften/Harden Edges" to better reflect its functionality.

 

The old name was misleading as it was not setting a user normal but rather hardening edges based on the angle between faces.

Is there a way to set a keyboard shortcut for this action. 
I was using it a lot before, and now I need to open the menu always 😞

Yes.

 

Use the MEL command (check in Script Editor)

Hi!

 

You need to create it manual ("Runtime Command Editor").
