Keyboard Customization
Keyboard shortcuts can be customized by using a text editor to modify a Python script located in the scripts folder of your Silhouette installation.
To modify your Silhouette keyboard shortcuts:
1 Go to the scripts folder of your Silhouette installation.
2 For Windows, go to C:\Program Files\BorisFX\Silhouette[version]\resources\scripts.
or
3 For Linux, go to the user determined Silhouette install location and then navigate to Silhouette[version]/resources/scripts.
or
4 For Macintosh, go to /Applications/BorisFX/Silhouette[version], right-click on Silhouette and select Show Package Contents.
A new Browser window opens.
5 In the new Browser window, go to Contents/Resources/scripts.
Inside the scripts folder, you will find a keybinds.py file. As a precaution, it would be a good idea to make a backup of this file.
6 Make a copy of the keybinds.py file and rename the copy keybinds.py.bak.
7 Using a text editor, open the keybinds.py file.
8 Scroll down and replace the existing shortcuts with those of your choosing.
9 Save the file.
10 Restart Silhouette for the new keyboard shortcuts to be active.
