About keyboard shortcuts and non-U.S. keyboards

The default Dreamweaver keyboard shortcuts work primarily on U.S.-standardized keyboards. Keyboards from other
countries (including those produced in the United Kingdom), may not provide the functionality necessary for utilizing
these shortcuts. If your keyboard does not support certain Dreamweaver-enabled shortcuts, Dreamweaver disables
their functionality.

To customize keyboard shortcuts that work with non-U.S.-standardized keyboards, see “Changing keyboard shortcut
mappings” in Extending Dreamweaver.
