====== Mapping keyboard shortcuts in SSMS ======

To map keyboard shortcuts((A number of commands in SSMS 2012 seemed to be mapped differently than in previous versions, also opening an Integration Services catalog for the first time in SSMS 2014 resets a few popular options. Here's how to fix that!)):

  - Tools -> Options
  - Environment -> Keyboard
  - For each shortcut:
    - In the scroll pane containing the list of commands, select (click to highlight) the command for which you want to create a shortcut. You can type in command fragments in the box above the pane to filter the list.
    - Use the 'Use new shortcut in' dropdown to choose the scope of your shortcut
    - Click into the 'Press shortcut keys' field
    - Press your key combination (e.g. F5, Ctrl + R, Ctrl + Alt + K)
    - Click the 'Assign' button to the right of the dropdown.
  - When you have finished assigning shortcuts, click OK.

===== Selected common settings =====
