Description questions2000 2025-10-24 22:44:02 UTC
Description:
If you assign different actions to some specific common shortcuts/actions (for example CTRL+N = new spreadsheet), when you open Menu Bar drop down you will see that both the common action and the new action you assigned that shortcut to will both show the same shortcut label.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open `Customize` window
2.Select `Keyboard` tab
3.Go to shortcut CTRL+N (you will see that no action is assigned)
4.Assign for example: "Templates" action to this shortcut
5.Close `Customize` window
6.In Menu Bar click on 'File' and then 'New" flyout
7.You will see that both 'Spreadsheet' at the top of the flyout and 'Templates' at the bottom of the flyout, both show the same CTRL+N shortcut being assigned.

Actual Results:
Menu Bar drops down items both show same shortcuts being used.

Expected Results:
Menu Bar drop downs should only show 1 instance of shortcut, because only 1 shortcut can be assigned to an action.


Reproducible: Always

Here is a list of some of the "common" actions/shortcuts I came across that do not have actions shown to be linked to them. 
CTRL+N = new
CTRL+S = save
SHIFT+CTRL+S = save
CTRL+Q = quit
CTRL+P = print

These are just the ones I tested, there might be other "common" default shortcutss that experience these same two issues mentioned?
There might be other shortcuts as well, if anyone knows of any others, please mention them.

CTRL+O = open
this one has the "open" action assigned to it, but developers may want to verify if there are any issues with the code just in case.

Hope this helps
