well, the video shows how you can assign or modify a shortcut key combination, but not (if it is possible) how to create a new shortcut. eg: duplicate line. still looking if this is possible

[@mangalmangal6418]

There is already a key binding for that in VSCode. You can put your cursor on the line you would like to duplicate and then press CTRL+C and CTRL+V. You don't have to select the line. You can just put your cursor anywhere on the line and duplicate that way.

[@clarkio]

Yes that plus another way is by having your cursor on that line and pressing ALT + SHIFT + Arrow key up (or down) on Windows/Linux. It's OPTION + SHIFT + Arrow key up (or down) on macOS.

i commend you on making this video as short as it can be. a bunch of other gas-bags take +20 minutes to do it. the only thing to maybe improve is remove background music. when i'm already listening to music, the video's background music interferes. if i speed up the video, the background music sounds kinda weird.

[@clarkio]

Thanks for the helpful feedback Dan. Will keep this in mind for videos moving forward. Glad you found it helpful as well 👍
