The command is on the track menu so you should be able to.

The command is not on the Track Menu.

I found a way by creating the shortcuts via the Mac's System Preferences.

You must not be seeing the entire photo - they clearly show the Make Inactive/Make Active options which is what you were asking about.

The op is actually asking about a shortcut for the function and there isn't one. PT doesn't allow for creation of or customizing of shortcuts that I know of. You have to go about it outside of PT. There are daws that do allow such customization though. Digital Performer for one.

Yes, I think he was asking for a key command. I just right click and disable.

Makes sense to me. The only way to make a MacOS shortcut is if the command is in the menus on the top of the screen. MacOS can't do custom shortcuts that are only available in right-click menus or other custom menus in other parts of the software (i.e. clip bin drop down, etc.)
