How to change TextEdit keyboard shortcuts

keyboard

I would like to change TextEdit shortcuts which are visible in the menu, but are not listed in Keyboard shortcuts in System preferences. I tried adding new shortcut, assigned to TextEdit, but it doesn't work for some reason…
This is what I want to have:

Jump to Selection -> ⌥ Space

Select Line -> ⌘ J

Not sure how the first one should work, but I was able to assign both custom shortcuts using this:

  1. Navigate to System Preferences->Keyboard->Keyboard Shortcuts
  2. Click "+" button
  3. Select TextEdit as an application
  4. Enter "Jump to Selection" or "Select Line…" (note that there is special … symbol used, not three periods, you can just copy and paste it from here I believe) as a menu title
  5. Press shortcut you'd like to use
  6. Test it and enjoy!

Hope this helps.
