Shortcut key for custom button in fluentUI

[Yajiv]

How do we assign keyboard shortcuts for custom buttons (added through
customui.xml)? I am not talking about keytip which appears when one
holds the ALT button, rather I am searching to assign a key like "Ctrl
+Shift+H" to a custom button.
Is that possible? Kindly shed some light...

Thanks,
Vijay

No, look at the XML for the available button attributes, nothing there for
keyboard shortcuts.

But, depending on the application, you may be able to assign a shortcut key
to the same underlying command/macro.

True, I was thinking specifically about Outlook, where you can only handle
the ribbon using a COM addin and not with VBA or macro code at all.

I have an xlam file in xlstart folder which initiates my custom ui tab
whenever i open my excel.
I wanted to set shortcut key for one of the macros in that .xlam file,
but excel does not list all those macros in that workbook.
I am able to see all the macros in my personal.xlsb, other workbooks,
but not that .xlam, so i am not able to set shortcut key for any of
the macros in that file.

as an alternative, i assigned shortcut key to a macro in personal.xlsb
and created another button in .xlam and referred this macro, only to
get "wrong arguments" error.

any solutions?
