Rather than creating a new thread for each command that is missing in the keyboard shortcut section for configuring Krita, I would like to consolidate them into a list in this thread. Please add your suggestions so they can be added to the list here. 1. Transform options that appear with Ctrl+T \> Right click, see [Transform shortcuts](https://krita-artists.org/t/transform-shortcuts/30784) 2. Some dockers cannot be called upon by shortcut (e.g. the Snapshot docker, Undo History) Undo history in particular is a command that is commonly evoked with a shortcut as opposed to multiple ctrl+z presses in other software. 3. Shortcuts for cycling shape tools: in Photoshop, you can assign the same shortcut to similar tools (e.g. and rectangle/ eliptical selection with “M”). With the tool active, pressing the hotkey again, results in it cycling through the tools. When the tool is activated with a hotkey, it uses the last used tool, meaning it is pretty efficient for using certain shapes or selections repeatedly, while not requiring many hotkeys for them to be used. ---

1. I am also missing a toggle shortcut for the brush stabiliser, so I only need to press one button to acitvate and deactivate Brush Smoothing. This could be between the Weighted - Basic mode and the Stabiliser - Basic mode. ---

> [@Hologram](#): > > I am also missing a toggle shortcut for the brush stabiliser Not exactly what you’re asking for, but I found mapping “s” to weighted and “shift-s” to basic to be pretty OK. In any case, I think this kind of thing would be relatively simple to do as a python plugin. ---

If that’s possible, then that would be great. Unfortunately I don’t know python at all. ---

You can find this in Krita under “Settings” \>\> “Configure Krita” \>\> “Keyboard Shortcuts” under “Krita” \>\> “Painting”. ![Brush-Smothing-ShortCuts](https://krita-artists.org/uploads/default/original/3X/2/c/2cb642c240f477418ea4f385dccc9b59e2802213.png) You do not need to know Python. But you could try to get to know Krita? Michelist ---

@Michelist Yes, but those are not toggle buttons, so you’d need to set multiple shortcuts. For things like this, I find it easier to press one button to switch between two modes. There are only so many keys available on a keyboard… ---

1. I would like the shortcut for fast switching between “Drawing angle” and “Tilt direction” control for the brush. Some time ago I already created the topic [Fast switch between "Drawing angle" and "Tilt Direction"](https://krita-artists.org/t/fast-switch-between-drawing-angle-and-tilt-direction/19475) ---

You could try to put this in an action, a tiny script, and put it into the actions folder. Take a look into one or two existing actions, or look into [Krita’s Scripting School](https://amazing-elion-61c814.netlify.app/lessons/introduction) it’s not hard to learn. Take an existing action and swap the corresponding values in it, exchange some names … You can do it, I’m nearly sure you can! Michelist ---

Or maybe I’ll use a [key sequence](https://krita-artists.org/t/a-new-world-of-shortcuts/19346/4), since there are 3 options that I need, but I’ll definitely keep the suggestion in mind. Do you happen to know ehere can I find a toggle action to get started? ---

With Actuator v0.6 you can just do that: ![ab-line-tools-cycle](https://krita-artists.org/uploads/default/original/3X/3/1/31c2ac6c3db897f3121bad486422e87f3fccec73.gif) Learn more [here](https://augmentedbrush.com/cycle-through-tools-with-actuator/).
