keyboard. In some cases, you can avoid using menus altogether.

Before you map some commands, you must first establish the condition that enables the
command. For example, before you map the Render In/Out command from the Clip menu, you
must first mark IN and OUT points in the Timeline so that the menu command appears.
To map menu commands:
1. Do one of the following to open a window that has user-selectable buttons:
t Activate a monitor in the Composer window.
t Click a Fast Menu button, and drag the Tool palette to open it.
t Open a clip in a pop-up monitor.
t Open the Keyboard palette from the Settings list in the Project window.
2. Select Tools > Command Palette.
The Command palette opens.
3. Select Menu to Button Reassignment.
4. Click a target button in the Keyboard palette or other palette (for example, the Command
palette under a monitor).
The pointer changes to a small white menu.
5. Select the menu command you want to map to the target button.
The initials for the menu command appear on the target button.
Example of a menu command — Special > MultiCamera Mode (MM) — mapped to a button in the Tool Palette.
