How to make shortcuts?

[1031982]

I am setting up Gimp for my mother to use in hopes that she can use it to fix scanned photos.
I am having trouble finding a way to create shortcuts for the following options :
Auto equalize
Auto white balance
Auto color enhance


Is there a way to do this, preferably adding buttons that will be easy to use.

You can create a keyboard shortcut to a function using Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts ( down bottom of the menu)



There are more functions than keys, most keys are already taken. Disabled just means not assigned. Easy enough to change, including those already taken. You might (will) get a warning that the key is taken but you can change (re-assign) anyway.

For the functions you want I would narrow the choice down using the search facility top of the dialogue.

Something like this: screenshot https://i.imgur.com/s195lHp.jpg

Which keys to choose? Any you like. Gimp will indicate if it is not possible - function keys for example. For a simple sequence A - S - D is convenient. I would avoid the bottom qwerty line z, x, c sometimes useful.

You might find that 'auto-equalize' and color-enhance' often not much use. Remember ctrl-z (undo) is your friend.

So there is no way to make icons for them in a dock?
