Let's say I set command-z to something in system preferences -> keyboard -> shortcuts
. Every application on the planet will override my keybinding and command-z will "undo" instead of whatever I set it to do in OSX.
This is just an example, I have no desire to use command-z for anything other than undo, but if I did, how would I go about it? I have a keybinding i have used for years and a new application I have started using redefines it or some nonsense and it is driving me insane because my fingers do it automatically at this point. Further, what is the point of setting any keybindings in system preferences if any app, or even browser extension, can come along at some point in the future and override any of them?
Perhaps the shortcut needs to be application-specific instead of for all applications? This would fix your problem with the new app specifically. – D Schlachter – 2017-06-07T15:20:03.683
