CalypsoArt Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) I'm starting out with VW. All my other software has the spacebar set to exit the current tool and switch to "select." Can I make this change in VW. Edited September 20, 2014 by CalypsoArt 1 Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 No - as Space Bar is for panning. What you are looking for is the "X" key. 1 Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted September 22, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 22, 2014 You can remap the Selection tool to a key other than X in the Workspace Editor, but the Spacebar is hard-coded as it has a number of functions relating to suspending the currently active tool for panning/zooming and view changes.

CalypsoArt Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Thanks for the response. Hmm? Considering all my other software uses the space bar to activate Select, this really infringes on my workflow habits. Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yes pity. (My Modo also drops the tool with Spacebar, so I hammer on it too ) But I for myself would like to have LMB+ALT for Flyover Tool. Just like all my other 3D software. (Instead of MMB+CTRL) But Click+ALT is occupied by selection options. It doesn't look like I could change that in Workspace Editor. So I try to live with it. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted September 24, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 24, 2014 I am not sure why some commands and tools are hard coded when so much else is customizable. I'll see if I can get an answer on that. Quote Link to comment
