Open the menu in IB, and double-click to the right of the menu item's title (where the shortcut is shown if the menu item already has one). A box should appear around that area. Then, just hit the key combination that you want and it will be entered as the shortcut. This way you can even do some cool shortcuts not involving the command key - for instance the function and arrow keys. Shame the help key is intercepted somewhere higher up the responder chain... Likewise numlock and del can't be used on their own, but most other 'special' keys can.

If you want to have no shortcut key you can double-click and press 'del' (the forward delete key) or open up the inspector panel and delete the contents of the 'key equivalent' text field in the attributes section.

Cheers,

Tom

Preview's View menu has a Zoom in and a Zoom out menu option. The short cut for these is the command key plus the up arrow or down arrow. Preview displays a little arrow on the menu items.

Does anyone know how I can get the up arrow and down arrow characters into the IB spec for my menu items?
