Keyboard shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts

Are there any keyboard shortcuts in Fusion 360?

 

The mouse interface is very cool, but personally I find a combination of the keyboard and mouse faster, whether I am doing CAD, photoshop, whatever.

Hi guys,

 

We need an extra push for customizable hotkeys!

I've created new post for them:

I don't think Fusion guys would look that much in "Implemented" threads. It's  crossed out on their task list.

How close are we to being able to manage a list of commands for ourselves? I would love to toggle my selection behaviors or other commands with the keyboard. Honestly, 'S' is good, and swipe is sweet, but not all items are in the swipe, and 'S' is an extra step just the same as the mouse. 

 

I use AutoCAD explicitly with the keyboard driving command entry and the mouse guiding with orchestrating the commands in the canvas. 

 

I mean this honestly, the moment you give me the feature in preferences to manage shortcuts against registered commands I will gain an hour a day, growing day by day as I become more and more familiar with Fusion.

 

I am a power keyboard user let me Roar! Call it a Productivity Pack!

Fusion 360 could still do with TONS more shortcuts, the ones i'd need are:

Switch to front, right, top, bottom, left, back views

Change Parameters

The toolbox should be entirely keyboard driven, e.g. Alt-C for Create, M for Mirror, etc.

Please add a hotkey for 'normal to' or 'look at'. This is one of my most used hotkeys in solidworks. And I think someone else mentioned this, but hit it twice to flip the view 180 degrees.

YES!! HOTKEYS for set views. being able to move quickly to set view points is a huge help.

all these features are already part of Fusion w/ the mouse, ie clicking the cube in the upper right.  should be easy to assign keys to those.

not just enable 4 views shift+1, but like in Blender the NumPad 7=TopView, 3=Side, 1=Front or whatever.  then use CTRL + NUM to view from opposite direction. 

Shift + NUM 1,3,7,9 for Isometric NW, SW, NE, SE type views.

rotate view with 2,4,6,8.  Home key equivalent to clicking the TINY house icon waaaay in the corner of screen (annoying if one is using a 4k screen to model and has to move waaaaay over to click the tiny button)

the . key on the numpad to act as the "lookat" button.

Hotkeys for every tool.  zoom in/out with + - keys.

there are a lot of unused keys.

take a look at Blender's keyboard shortcuts and you'll see, and i'm sure other more CAD programs have many more options.

hotkeys to access the toolbars would also be sweet.  similar to the ALT+ KEY in normal programs to have at least access to the drop-downs on each toolbar button.
