| + | |||
| + | The remaining buttons are toggled on and off. When enabled, you can then use the right mouse button to apply the selected key at the mouse pointer location.

 You can use these initially if you are unfamiliar with the keyboard hotkeys, or if you simply prefer to use the mouse for everything. Not every action is covered by these hotkey buttons though, so as you become more familiar with UVLayout, you will want to study the full list of keyboard hotkeys below. The top row of buttons are simple clicks to set the view to UV, Ed or 3D space, adjust the brush size, or Undo (shown as Z, but is really Ctrl-Z). The remaining buttons are toggled on and off. When enabled, you can then use the right mouse button to apply the selected key at the mouse pointer location. If an action calls for the double-tap of a hotkey (e.g. select edge loop with Double-C) then double-click the right mouse button to do the same thing. Disable the button to turn off the mouse hotkey action, and then the right mouse button can again be used to zoom the view. To zoom the view while a hotkey button is enabled, use the mouse wheel, or click and drag the left and middle mouse buttons. To manipulate shells or UV vertexes, you can either manually select the appropriate combination of Space, Ctrl and Shift buttons, or use the buttons under the Hints section to set them up for you. To temporarily disable the selected mouse hotkey actions, stow the Hotkeys panel. Open it back up and the previously selected mouse hotkey actions will be re-instated.
First off, here's some short-hands used in the lists below:
Note: The hotkeys are case-sensitive. This means that if you accidentally turn Caps Lock on, then most functions will not work correctly. Because of this, a warning message will appear in the 3D window whenever you have Caps Lock on. Common Keys

Arrow Keys : rotate by 30 degrees
MMB : pan
RMB : zoom
LMB+MMB : zoom
Wheel Roll : zoom

Shift-W : tag/untag an entire seam
Double-W : same as Shift-W
Backspace : untag cut/weld edges
O : toggle ortho/perspective projection
Pad5/Home/. : mouse pointer over geometry - focus view onto polys under pointer
: pointer over empty space - focus view onto picked shells

Enter : Make the G menu go away. H MenuWhenever you type the H key, a menu of extra options appears towards the bottom of the graphics window.
