The point is that users settle into their own ways of using a program (this is especially true with indispensable software, like texshop) that some changes, no matter how well thought and planned, can have serious unintended consequences. I like that TS now gives me the opportunity to search help docs, but I would not assign a shortcut to this service.

Have you tried the re-assignment? What OS version are you using?

Good Luck,
