What It Does
Universal Shortcut Fixer solves a specific problem: many After Effects keyboard shortcuts fail to work on non-English keyboards. Instead of constantly switching your operating system language, this script lets you map your physical keyboard layout once, save the configuration, and restart After Effects. Your shortcuts work correctly from then on.
Key Features
Keyboard mapping interface. Type your actual keyboard layout into the UI. The script records which physical keys correspond to which characters on your keyboard, then remaps After Effects shortcuts accordingly.
Desktop and laptop layout options. Choose between layout types to better match your hardware.
Manual input mode. Hold Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac) while typing to manually specify characters for specific keys. Useful for non-standard keyboards or special characters.
Restore backup button. If something breaks, revert to your previous shortcut file instantly. Retype your layout and save again.
The script handles problem characters that often cause issues: commas, single quotes, backslashes, and arrow keys on macOS.
Who It’s For
Editors and motion designers working on keyboards with layouts like AZERTY, QWERTZ, or other non-QWERTY configurations. If you’ve ever found that bracket shortcuts, layer shortcuts, or modifier-based commands don’t respond as expected, this script is the fix.
