Key Bindings dialog
• Key. Clicking this option makes a key on your MIDI keyboard act as a key binding shift key.
Choose which key by clicking the + or - buttons in the window that’s just to the right of the Key
button.
• Controller. Clicking this option makes a controller on your MIDI keyboard act as a key binding
shift key. Choose which controller (usually the sustain pedal) by choosing one from the drop-down

Bindings
The Bindings field has three lists, a button, and a line of text in it:
• Key. Use this window to highlight a key that you want to bind to a command in the Function list.
If a key or combination is already bound to a global command by default, the name of the key
appears in bold text, and the command it is bound to appears at the bottom of the dialog under
Global Key Assignment. Binding a key or combination to a command and clicking OK
overwrites any default binding for that key or combination.
• Function. Use this window to choose a command to bind to a highlighted key in the Key list.
• Bind Context. Use this window to choose in what context you want the key binding to work.
• Locate Key. Clicking this button allows you to quickly scroll the Key list to the key or keys that
you press on your computer keyboard.
• Global Key Assignment. When you highlight an item in the Key list, this text line that’s below
the Key list showss any command that the item is currently bound to.
