MacOS – How to turn off the built in macOSD shortcut for Minimise (‘Opt’ + ‘Cmd’ + “M”)

keyboardmacosshortcut

I want to use the built in Google Docs shortcut for "Add Comment…" (I don't think I can change those). It is the same as the one Apple assigned for minimise documents ('Opt' + 'Cmd' + "M").

I've been through all the System Prefs tabs relating to keyboard shortcuts I can find and I cannot find a way to change or disable this built in behaviour. Is there a way?

Best Answer

Setting a new custom shortcut frees the old one to pass through to the application.

  • What if you set minimize to be triggered by Control + Option + Command + Shift + L in Apple Keyboard Preferences?

You can set that just for your web browser(s) for using Google Docs or you can set it system wide as you find works best for your brain.
