Edit keyboard shortcuts

[m_kingdon]

Is it possible to edit the keyboard shortcuts in Infraworks?

For example, I want to change W and S keys to forward and backwards instead of tilt.  Having these keys linked to tilt is very unintuitive to me, probably from my time playing video games.

I find the Navigate in First Person controls but easier to use, but they are only accessible via the model viewer in the browser.

Hi @m_kingdon ,

it's only possible to invert all the key, but not part of them, see Help | To set navigation options .

Thanks, but could we add this to the feature request list? Or should I do this?

Most other software allows for keyboard commands to be reassigned. I find navigation controls in Twinmotion much more intuitive, and it would be nice to get the commands to match. Working with models that reside in both Infraworks and Twinmotion can be a bit frustrating.

Hi @m_kingdon,

for general feature requests and improvement ideas, we have the InfraWorks Ideas pages.
Please, before submitting a new idea, search if the idea already exists and if yes, vote there and write comments.

Regards,

Karsten.

It appears a similar request was made in 2017. It was gathering support until it was "archived" in 2020. I do find the lack of love for Infraworks a bit frustrating. It has so much potential but it seems AutoDesk want to make it into a bridge builder more than a general all-round civil design package that accompanies Civil 3D. I guess that is where the demand was going from?

Recently my keyboard navigation doesn't function upon opening models intermittently (IW 2025)...  I've discovered that if I toggle wireframe on / off it starts working.  Not entirely relevant to original topic.  But I thought maybe you or others may be experiencing similar issue.  I use mouse Rt & Lt clicks + scroll wheel + wheel press + arrows simultaneously to drive otherwise I'd want invert up down look.  Convo takes me back to DOOM hahaha  🐵
