Does flash have some key combinations reserved? I am creating keyboard shortcuts and am discovering that some of the key combinations do not work. For example, Control + H does not work, but if I switch it to Control + L it works fine. I’ve found a few other Control + (letter) that do not work either. Is there a way to disable whatever flash has reserved so I can use whatever letter I want?
