keyboard shortcut for add slide

Does Keynote have a keyboard shortcut for Add Slide? There seems to be a shortcut for everything but this very commonly used action.

how to create keynote shortcut command I am trying to master Keynote. It is frustrating that to go to "Light table" view, it is a 2-step process. Click on the VIEW icon, and then 2, select LIGHT TABLE. PPT has a 1-step process, so it's a bummer that in Keynote it takes 2 actions. Is there a way to make a keyboard shortcut for LIGHT TABLE view? It would be great to be able to toggle between LIGHT TABLE, SLIDE, and NAVIGATOR view. Thanks.

Yes, adding a new slide in either slide layout view and in Master Slide view, the same command is used, therefore to add a new Master Slide, Keynote must be in Master slide view, and to add a new Slide, Keynote must be in slide layout view.

Thanks. It works. I see in the User Guide it says "Add a new master slide" for this key. Not for just "Add slide". Why make things simple?
