Export or import keyboard shortcuts in Final Cut Pro for Mac
After you save a command set, you may want to export it to create a backup or to share the new set with another user. Exported command sets are saved in a file that can be imported back into Final Cut Pro at a later time.
Export a set of custom keyboard shortcuts
Choose Final Cut Pro > Commands > Customize (or press Option-Command-K).
If the command set you want to export isn’t shown, click the pop-up menu in the top-left corner of the Command Editor and choose a different command set.
Do one of the following:
Choose Final Cut Pro > Commands > Export.
Click the pop-up menu in the top-left corner of the Command Editor and choose Export.
Type a name for the exported command set in the Save As field, navigate to the location where you want to save the exported set, and click Save.
The file is saved in the location you chose, with the filename extension .commandset.
Import a command set
In Final Cut Pro, do one of the following:
Choose Final Cut Pro > Commands > Import.
Open the Command Editor by choosing Final Cut Pro > Commands > Customize, then click the pop-up menu in the upper-left corner of the Command Editor and choose Import.
In the window that appears, navigate to the location where you’ve stored a command set file, select it, and click Open.
If you’re already using a command set with the same name, you’re asked to rename the command set.
The new command set is added to the Commands submenu of the Final Cut Pro menu and to the pop-up menu in the Command Editor.
