When I first started learning Blender last year after bouncing off it several times like you, that was my issue as well. To be fair, it's the fault of the tutorial if it refers to a default hotkey rather than the function it represents. Or even stating things like "I'm using the extrude function, "e" by default" would be…
Blender has made a lot of strides forward in UI and usability with 2.8. If you haven't tried it recently I recommend giving it another look, speaking as someone who has bounced off it multiple times in the past. Blender now has a hotkey (keymap) preset called "Industry Compatible" that replicates a lot of hotkeys from…
Continuing to update this Hybrid keymap, most recently rebuilt for Blender 5.0. The latest version can be found on both Right Click Select and Gumroad. I've also created a lengthy walkthrough tutorial for those wishing to create their own custom keymap going through the whole process.
Yep, too many tutorials - or just references in some forum thread - that only reference the key being used, not the function name. For what it's worth I disabled all the frigging hotkeys in Blender when I moved in and did my customizations from scratch. That took weeks to get it right. :) I came from a background of…
Yeah, the brain bending around navigation is the whole reason I did this keymap. It just saves time and aggravation if you change at least the camera control and select/move/rotate/scale to be like other tools, especially if you're frequently switching software. The one problem with making your own custom hotkeys is…
I've updated the Hybrid keymap with some fixes for Grease Pencil, should now work correctly out of the box (download from same link above). Thanks for catching that one. I hadn't really been using Grease Pencil at all before so had overlooked it during testing.
ooooooooooooooookeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy i found how to do it ... It seems that a conflict was in and blender doesn't notice users about that ... Blender should tell Double entry for all WER shortcuts ... I removed Move rotate and scale from preference the one with "translate" Saved the preferences. Reboot Blender.
You're right, Grease Pencil QWER keys don't seem to be working right. I had missed that.. When you say you removed move/rotate/scale do you mean just in the Grease Pencil category?
