[Bf-committers] 3D Cursor and Border Select

2012-02-25 Thread Daniel Salazar - 3Developer.com
In my personal use experience and more importantly when teaching to students setting the 3D cursor with LMB click is one of the main sources of headaches. Cursor just moves around every second on the student's files What I do is set it to double click, this makes it harder to set by mistake while

I could not agree more. The 3D cursor is such a great tool but it takes new users a while to get comfortable with it. Having it set as left click does nothing but make it harder, particularly when using manipulators. Jonathan Williamson http://blendercookie.com http://mavenseed.com On Feb 25,

Thanks for the quick reply Jonathan, what do you think about border select being just drag? Also on the same line I'd ask for Shift +C (reset 3D cursor) to *not* move the view, it seems it does some strange combination of view all + view cursor. I propose for this tool to only center the 3D

I actually like that Shift C also centers the view, I use it for this all the time. I think making border select just drag makes nothing but sense, it's one of the few things that's consistent in almost all software. Along with changing it to drag, I would also propose making it the same as

Agreed about shift + drag = negative box select About the centering, well let's just leave it for later so we can keep moving with the proposal, I just think there's home key for centering all cheers! Daniel Salazar patazstudio.com On Sat, Feb 25, 2012 at 7:00 PM, Jonathan Williamson

Agree with all previously mentioned stuff. Shift + C is useful for resetting cursor but behaviour is very awkward and even more so since it only resets the view if there are any objects in the scene. I would like something easy as f to frame selected obejcts and a to frame all. I know those are
