Some (newbie) questions

gevels
Hello, I'm new at this forum and a new (testing) user of Librecad.
As an architect I've been working with Minicad (later Vectorworks) for over 40 years.
Since I'm retired I only need a simple CAD program for a drawing every now and then.
My old VW license doesn't run on my (newer) iMac anymore so I'm testing Librecad at the moment.

A few questions:
- As the keyboard-shortcuts of VW are still "in my fingers" I wonder if there is way to edit / add shortcuts to menu items /commands in LC ?
- I read on this forum that the order of stacked objects on a layer can be altered by using Tools; Modify; Order, but that command is not in the list (see connected screendump) I'm using version 2.2.0.2.

In different LibreCAD versions it might be found at different places.

Ok, Dellus, second problem solved (sort of); thanks for that.
What about my first question ?

I took a look there, Firefly, but I don't think I will go that way.
But thanks anyway.

you may also check the latest 2.2.2-alpha version (located there - https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/releases/tag/2.2.2_alpha-latest)

In that version, there are lots of improvements and one of such features is support of keyboard shortcuts, custom menus and toolbars.
