No keyboard shortcuts...?

Hi Everyone,

I’m wondering, if this is real, or am I missing something: I find that there are only like 15 predefined hotkeys in Unity, and no possibility to create new ones without scripting. I browsed the forums, but didn’t find anything helpful, only questions without answers, and some pointless arguements…

Someone please help! Having to click all the time really slows down my workflow :frowning:
If it needs a script to set up the shortcuts, could someone please send me one by mail?

Thanks in advance!

Unity has about 30 different keyboard shortcuts, check this link for a full list.

Also, if you’re running Windows and don’t wanna mess around with scripting to create new hot keys check out Auto Hotkey

Thanks rsbombard! I’ll check these out.

Yeah, that list is helpful, but I’ve already known most of thos hotkeys. The ones I miss the most would be shortcuts for directions (top/front/perspective), and types (wireframe/textured, etc.) of the scene view. I change those quite often, and I might not be the only one :slight_smile:
Do you guys click on the gizmo every time you chane those…?

It would be so easy to assign those to the numpads, like in modo for example.

Not anymore. Unity 3 added trackpad gestures for them. The cursor still has to be over the Scene view, but that’s a much larger space, so much faster. Right hand: stylus goes over Scene View; Left Hand: three finger swipes.

It’s very much like sliding to notes on a guitar, and bending, if you’re two-handed tapping.
