Custom keyboard shortcut to merge cells in Numbers?

How do I create custom keyboard shortcut to merge cells in Numbers? The instructions on the support site say to open Keyboard in preferences then click the +. I don't see a plus anywhere. On any menu.

The Merge Cell command does not have a keyboard short cut. You can, however, add one to your user space as follows:


Open System Preferences, then select the keyboard panel:

On the left click the "Application Shortcut" then on the right select Numbers. now click the "+"


User uploaded file

Now enter the exact name of the menu item "Merge Cells" (by looking up the name of the menu item in the menus of Numbers), then selec the "Keyboard Shortcut" field and type the exact key combination you want to use. Be sure it is unique from other Numbers key combination.
