Hi. I am trying to figure out how to store / transport / import custom shortcuts. There doesn't appear to be an easy way to do this. In fact, there doesn't appear to be any way to do this. Where are the custom shortcuts stored? Can that file be edited/loaded into a new installation of Wwise on another system/another user? I'm not talking about creating a json file for new commands, just custom shortcuts for built in commands. Thanks.

There is no way to export or import keyboard shortcuts from the UI at the moment.

However, as a workaround, you can replace the %APPDATA%/Audiokinetic/Wwise/KeyboardShortcuts.xml file with one from another machine.

Thanks. I am on a Mac. I can only find KeyboardShortcuts.xsd found in /Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Audiokinetic/Wwise/Authoring/Data/Schemas/. Is this the same file?
Correct, although the file is usually found under $HOME/Library instead of /Macintosh HD/Library.
I dug around and did a search in my home /Users/--------/Library/Application Support/Audiokinetic/Wwise folder but that file is not in there, only in the path I posted previously. Interesting. Thanks for the info in any case.
