Defining Keyboard Shortcuts

You can define a keyboard shortcut for many of the tasks you perform with Stylus Studio. If you find that you repeatedly perform the same action, define a shortcut to speed your work. You can use a keyboard shortcut right after you define it.

How to Define a Keyboard Shortcut
