Custom Shortucts List

Simple dialog that shows all user-set hotkeys in one list. Hovering over each button shows the category and group of the action. Clicking the button executes the action - unless the button shows as disabled, which means that the action is not available (the macro might have got lost or it may belong to a plugin which is currently not installed).

If you find yourself changing modifier parameters to the same same values over and over again, make your life easier and use the same modifier with preset values instead.
