Word for Mac: [cmd]+[alt]+[num +]

Question

Note: I use a dutch version of Word. I translated my commands beneath, so forgive me if there's anything wrong.

Earlier, when I used the shortcut [cmd]+[alt]+[num+] in Word for Mac, my cursor changed into ⌘ and I could adjust a keyboard shortcut right away by clicking the task in the ribbon.
At this moment this combination doesn't work anymore for this action, now it's a zoom function. I'd like to change this again, because I don't use this zoom function.

I noticed a similar combination [ctrl]+[alt]+[num+] still exists to open the Customize Keyboard panel, but I'd like to see the cursor change into ⌘ again and work that way, because I don't know all of the correct names of the commands.

I already tried to change it in Tools -> Customize Keyboard, but it seems like the right command (Tools Customize Keyboard Shortcut) disappeared.

Can anyone help me with this?

Hi @Jessica Benou

Are your using a keyboard with U.S. keyboard layout?
According to this article "Keyboard shortcuts in Word", I do not find the shortcut of cmd+alt+num+.

1. I suggest you check whether this shortcut conflict with default macOS keyboard shortcuts. I suggest you go to System Preferences to check the Mission Control.
   To check names of the commands.
   Please check Shift + F10 (Display the shortcut menu for the selected item) is helpful to you.
2. Besides, if you do not find such function command in the Commands list on Customize Keyboard interface as following image, it maybe removed by software design.
   
   It's recommended to submit this request on Microsoft Feedback forum.
   Thanks for your understanding.
