10.6 Predefined Keyboard Shortcuts

The Microchip Studio uses the Visual Studio Shell framework from Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. Therefore, the integrated development environment (IDE) includes several predefined keyboard shortcut schemes identical to those in the Visual Studio. When you start Microchip Studio for the first time and select your settings, the associated schemes are automatically set. Then you can choose from additional schemes and create your keyboard shortcuts by using the keyboard options page in the Options dialog box.

Designers and Editors, Shared Shortcuts
