Hi, does anyone know of a way that will really assign a shortcut to a pair of keystrokes?

I'm using a "foreign" keyboard, one in spanish, but assigned shortcuts don't seem to work when trying to use { [ } or ]. This also doesn't seem to work in Illustrator CS2 in spanish (which I ceased to use because there are no updates for it).

:S Miss how this flawlessly works in InDesign, also miss that there can only be ONE keystroke assigned...

Illustrator CS2 english (12.0.1)
Keyboard: spanish, "ñ" and all that
windows: XP SP2 in english

same problem is with any other keyboard than US/EN

change shortcuts to
* Bring to Front Ctrl-Alt-<numeric +>
* Bring Forward Ctrl-Alt-Shift-<numeric +>
* Bring Backward Ctrl-Alt-Shift-<numeric ->
* Bring to Back Ctrl-Alt-<numeric ->

thanks KingRolo, I have currently assigned them to Ctrl-/ and Ctrl-* in the numeric keyboard, but that's very counter-intuitive, I always forget what does what, and waste a lot of time.

Will definitely try that, had it with Ctrl-Shift-- and Ctrl-Shift-+, but got in the way with zoom in and zoom out, thanks, yours seems better :D

I think I'll also add this as an alternative in InDesign :)

I think you know, but anyway

Right ALT (Alt Gr) == <Alt> + <Ctrl>
