hotkey for goto Start of timeline

[Tom N.]

hey zempher,

I just tested this to make sure it works, and yes you can make hotkeys for playback controls. Open your script editor, and go to Script - Echo all commands. Then go to Edit - Clear all. Now you have a clean script editor that will give you the script for the next move you do. So just hit the "go to start" arrow on your timeslider and you should see a couple lines of code pop up. Copy that code, then go into your hotkeys editor and click the "new" button. Give it a name and then just paste that command in the command section that you got from the script editor and hit "accept". Then go under "user" in the left column of the hotkey editor, and on the right you'll see your hotkey. Then just assign it a hotkey.

Hope this was helpful, now you can do this for pretty much any command.

oh thanks, that's great. I made a hotkey for sending the playhead to the last keyframe using this line of code...

currentTime -edit `findKeyframe -timeSlider -which last`;

very helpful. thankyou. :applause:

here's some default ones.


alt + . is next frame
alt + , is previos frame.
. is next keyframe
, is prev keyframe
alt + v is play and stop


and like stated above you can make buttons for start and end.
