A while ago in my database library’s chat channel, there was a really good discussion about shortcuts and how each of us customises his or her menus to be able to draw schematics and layout boards as quickly and efficiently as possible. One of the things I really love about Altium Designer ® is how many shortcuts there are, and how customisable they are.
