Calc Guide

To choose an icon for a command, select the command and click Modify > Change
icon. On the Change Icon dialog (Figure 350), scroll through the available icons,
select one, and click OK to assign it to the command.
To use a custom icon, create it in a graphics program and import it into OOo by
clicking the Import button on the Change Icon dialog. Custom icons must be 16 x 16
or 26 x 26 pixels in size and cannot contain more than 256 colors.

Customizing keyboard shortcuts
In addition to using the built-in keyboard shortcuts (listed in Appendix A), you can
define your own. You can assign shortcuts to standard OOo functions or your own
macros and save them for use with the entire OpenOffice.org suite or only for Calc.
Caution
Be careful when reassigning your operating system’s or OOo’s predefined
shortcut keys. Many key assignments are universally understood
shortcuts, such as F1 for Help, and are always expected to provide
certain results. Although you can easily reset the shortcut key
assignments to the OOo defaults, changing some common shortcut keys
can cause confusion, frustration and possible data loss or corruption,
especially if other users share your computer.
To adapt shortcut keys to your needs, use the Customize dialog, as described below.
1) Select Tools > Customize > Keyboard. The Keyboard page of the Customize
dialog opens.
2) To have the shortcut key assignment available only with Calc, select Calc in
the upper right corner of the page; otherwise select OpenOffice.org to make
it available to every component.
3) Next select the required function from the Category and Function lists.
