Q: I am about to move from V7 to V8. Will my shortcut key-ins work in V8?
A: There are no problems using your key-ins. Just take your shortcuts.txt from the Workspace | System | Data menu and copy it into the same location in your V8 setup.
However, there are some minor changes in syntax; reference or level type ones for example. There have also been a couple of changes to AccuDraw's shortcuts in V8.
