Abstract
A shortcut key manager and method is provided for managing shortcut key assignment to non-command user interface items. In response to receipt of an item identification that identifies a non-command user interface item type and a key identification that identifies a shortcut key, the shortcut key is assigned to the non-command user interface item type that defines the non-command item. When the shortcut key is input, an instance of the non-command user interface item is presented to the user in response to the user input of the shortcut key.
