Maya hotkey-swapping

[dave_baer]

Well, it's very simple.

Program all hotkeys as follows...

ANIMATION: Normal keys (Example: D)

MODELING: CTRL+Keys (Example CTRL+D)

DYNAMICS: ALT+Keys (Example ALT+D)

RENDERING: CTRL+ALT+Keys (Example CTRL+ALT+D)

As for Menu specific hotkeys that change when you change the menu selections, well, that's beyond my knowledge.

this is like the way i did now. :)

Here is a tip from Joojaa (highend3d)

"write down the hotkeys ina file and source it? "

not testet yet....

Another possible way - not a very good one I guess though - would be to make a switch loop for every hotkey, and the loop would check in which menuset you're in and run the wanted hotkey according to the result... but this would take ages to set up, and wouldn't be too pretty to look at ;)
