Secret Substance Designer Hotkeys?

daniellooartist

Hello everyone. I've watched this video on some basic substance tricks. However I've noticed the presenter was using hotkeys which would be extremely useful. It would make all of our work exponentially faster to have these. I know there are no custom hotkeys because steam user wesm stated that the option did not exist. Yet the presenter in the video still uses them.

>A hotkey to place a frame around everything that is selected.
>A series of hotkeys to add nodes in the cursor's current position. Without pressing space, etc.

[solved]
>if you want a particular blending node, click on the drop down box and press the letter your blending mode starts with. Press it multiple times to cycle through it alphabetically.

You're so close to the subforum for this question!

You could download AutoHotkey which will give you a similar functionality as UE4's material editor, where you can hold a button down and click your mouse to create nodes.  For example, holding L + left click will create a Levels node.  You have to set up all the custom hotkeys yourself, though.

I'll give that a shot. Thank you.
