7.51 Workspace. Have assigned hot keys to my navigation buttons now. And get weird results.


Assigned:

Camera Move - y

Camera Roate - x

Camera FOV - c

Move - a

Rotate - s

Scale - d


Now when i press the buttons i get wrong activations.


Pressing y activates correctly Camera Move.

Pressing x activates Rotate.

Pressing c activates scale.

Pressing a activates Camera Move

Pressing s activates Camera Rotate.

Pressing D activates Camera FOV


My favourite: pressing z activates Move :D


Should add that i use german Win XP here. And so a german layout ...

I think you would have to change many of those shortcuts manually on the scripts/Window.Shortcuts.xml because they are preset ;)

the list of pre existing shortcuts is in the manual chapter 2, page 48

Ah you are right. I totally forgot that it is forbidden to assign the same hotkeys in the workspace than in the modeler ...

But this just shows that there is more than one pitfall here:

It doesn't simply fail, it works just wrong.
Why am i forced to learn new hotkeys for workspace?
Why don't i get a warning ?
How can i find out if the hotkey is still used in modeler? Testing and comparing them one by one?
And why does it set camera move with two hot keys when i just assign one?

And why is this important issue not fixed with the patch?

in model icon helper you can choose hotkeys in list, it will show all icons with hotkeys..
think it was Tom who suggested adding a ctrl or alt to your hotkeys on one side [model or wspace] so they can be almost the same

don't know the answer to the last questions :confused: same as why can't we select in ws edit like in model? :confused: :( :confused:

Yeah, I'm a regular thread jacker...sorry. I don't have any answers on this except that I know I have issues with any hotkeys being used in model side seem to interfere with hotkeys in workspace..not always and i have not thoroughly tested this, but it has caused me problems in the past.
