Note

Standard shortcuts can be different in foreign language keyboard layouts. For example, the Swedish keyboard layout treats the “/“ key as Shift+7.
To change shortcuts that run CodeRush features: use the CodeRush | Shortcuts… menu item to access shortcuts configuration options, find the required shortcut by its command or keys, and modify the “First shortcut” field. ChangeShortcut
