Within your show directory, there is a file called xlights_keybindings.xml.  This file contains all of the current shortcut key strokes.  You can edit the file to fit your needs.

A while back the shortcut keystroke "s" has two definitions...Split and Spiral...might want to check if it is still the same...every time I used it, it split the timing marks instead of inserting a Spiral..

Just verified that if you change the "s" for Spiral to a "S" (capital S), it knows the difference.

Just be aware that if you have multiple working directories, like I do, you will have multiple keystroke files.
Plus, it may get overwritten by updates, though it does get backed up when you DO YOUR BACKUPS,

Have you seen it get overwritten by an update?  I haven't looked at the code but I would imagine it only creates the file if it doesn't already exist.

I made an "update" to the keyboard file for this example. There hasn't been an update released since then. Time will tell !!
