Hotkeys let you easily assign "shortcut" buttons to common actions within the studio, making it easier to manage your streams/recordings while in a live session.
Hotkeys are saved per-person and are not shared between team members in the studio.
How to Use Hotkeys
1. First, enter a StreamYard studio. Then, click Settings > Hotkeys.
2. All available hotkeys will be listed here, with the default hotkey we assigned to each function. To customize each hotkey, just click on the hotkey to edit it and assign your own keybinding. Keybindings can either be one specific keyboard button, or a combination of button presses.
Delete a Hotkey
To delete a hotkey, click the X on the right.
