Shortcuts
*********

Porymap has many keyboard shortcuts set by default, and even more that can be customized yourself.  You can view and customize your shortcuts by going to *Options -> Edit Shortcuts*.  Shortcut actions are grouped together by the window that they are used in (Main Window, Tileset Editor...).  You can set up to 2 shortcuts per action, but you cannot have duplicate shortcuts set within the same window.  If you enter a shortcut that is already in use, Porymap will prompt you cancel or overwrite the old shortcut.  You can also restore your shortcuts to the defaults.
