View keyboard shortcuts in the Command Editor

Final Cut Pro provides a wide variety of menu commands and keyboard shortcuts that let you
control almost every aspect of your project, from playback to displaying windows and inspectors
to working with tools. You can use the Command Editor to modify existing shortcuts, create new
shortcuts, and save multiple sets of keyboard shortcuts that you can export for others to use. You
can also import a set of shortcuts that someone else created. And if you’re more familiar with
keyboard shortcuts from other applications, you can use the Command Editor to substitute those
shortcuts in place of the default set for Final Cut Pro.

The Command Editor provides a set of keyboard shortcuts for Final Cut Pro in English, Japanese,
French, and German. The language that is shown is determined by your computer’s operating
system. To learn how to change the language used by Final Cut Pro, see OS X Help, available from
the Help menu when the Finder is active.
