Hi there, A User is searching for user defined Hotkeys in the 2020R1 Release of discovery. He would e.g. like to use the S key for Split Body like in SpaceClaim or the F9 key for Hide Body. I searched the Online Help but I could not find any

Hello Klaus

Let me check if there is any document with the Hotkeys.

Some of the Hotkeys from SpaceClaim, such as P for Pull and X for cross section work in Discovery too,

Hello Subashni,
Thanks for the quick answer. The User is well aware of all the existirng Hotkeys. He would like to define his own Hotkeys.

Hello Klaus

I checked with my team and I understand that User-defined Shortcuts are not available in Discovery now. 

Although, all SpaceClaim shortcuts work with Discovery.

Please check below documentation link for SpaceClaim shortcuts.
Keyboard shortcuts (ansys.com)

Hello Subashni
That is my understanding, too. User-defined Shortcuts are currently not available in Discovery. The User ist well aware of the Shortcuts that are available in SpaceClaim. However, he wants to define his own Shortcuts to make the GUI behave in a similar way as the Workbench GUI, e.g. F9 for "hide body". I understand that this is an enhancement request to the GUI. Would you be placing this user request? The user is Mr. Bernhard Gumpetsberger from the Company Bilfinger Industiral in Wels, Germany.
