# ShortcutAttribute

> Registers a static method as the action for an action shortcut.

## Definition

* **Type:** Class
* **Namespace:** [UnityEditor.ShortcutManagement](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/shortcutmanagement.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEditor
* **Inherits from:** [ShortcutBaseAttribute](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/shortcutmanagement/shortcutbaseattribute.md)

```csharp
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class ShortcutAttribute : ShortcutBaseAttribute
```

## Remarks

An action shortcut triggers when the binding for the shortcut is pressed down. The method that this attribute is placed on must either take no arguments or take a single argument of type [ShortcutArguments](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/shortcutmanagement/shortcutarguments.md).

You can bind a [ClutchShortcutAttribute](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/shortcutmanagement/clutchshortcutattribute.md) and a [ShortcutAttribute](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/shortcutmanagement/shortcutattribute.md) to the same mouse button. In this case, the action shortcut triggers when the mouse button is released.
