Color pallet keyboard shortcut 2018

Does anyone know the Mastercam 2018 keyboard shortcut to bring up the color pallet directly (see pic); bypassing the attribute panel?   Reason; my mouse has programmable buttons. I  like these programmed to change colors while drawing. 

X9 was the last version that had a keyboard shortcut I know of.

Thank you

Yes you can assign a hot key for it.

Right click tool bar>customize the ribbon>key board shortcut>home

Scroll down to more colors. There are 3 of them one for wireframe, solids and surfaces I think. The second one should be for wireframe. Assign a short cut key and you should be able to change colors on the fly. Worked for me.

Edit: You can also preselect any feature wireframe, solid or surface use your shortcut and choose a new color and it will change it.

I had to grab the third choice for wireframe.
