Hey there!
I have reassigned the key "Z".

Unfortunately "Z" is hide/show spotlight-dial, but since i changed the key i wanted to
change the "hide/show spotlight-dial"-function with another key, but i cannot find the button which executes "hide/show spotlight-dial" to reassign it to another key :/

Any help is appreciated, thanks

    Huh, oddly enough, when I reassign Z to something else, the typical warning message that the key is being used by something else didn't show up. It just assigned it automatically, as if there wasn't anything assigned to Z before. And then the spotlight dial stops working. Didn't find the button you're asking for either in the Texture tab, near all the spotlight buttons...

    If no one here knows this, maybe try your luck in the ZBrush forums. I know at least a few folks there that should have the knowledge to give you a more in-detail answer of what's going on, like marcus_civis.  

    If all else fails...Just fck it. Redo your hotkey mappings sir!

    Hello, I had exactly the same problem, because I changed the shortcut ... just go to the transformation window and assign a new shortcut to the Edit Spotlight icon. I hope I've helped.
