Did you actually press Left Shift+Alt in the <press new shortcut key> box?
If I press Alt+Shift+Left Arrow (which is how I interpret your combination),
I see OutlinePromote as the command to which this is assigned.

I see you originally said Left Alt+Shift, which is something different. For
this you will not see anything because Alt and Shift are merely combination
keys; without the addition of any other keys, they should not accomplish
anything.
