Is it possible to disable some or all Shortcuts in a Plugin?

Hello,

I want to make my plugin react to take some action when the users presses specific keys.

At the moment I use keys that are not connected to a shortcut, this works well by making my plugin implement KeyListener and using the function  "keyPressed(KeyEvent e)”.

However, I am not able to get keys that are already used as a shortcut. Can I disable certain shortcuts in my plugin and then use those “free” keys to do my own work? If necessary, I can disable ALL shortcuts, as during the evaluation I don’t need any predefined shortcuts.

If possible I would like to reactivate the disabled shortcuts after finishing my plugin.

Best

Armin
