Hi is there a user defined tool bar like the SW S key in inventor

 

http://www.solidworks.com/sw/resources/videos/solidworks-skey-mouse-gestures.htm

 

I find this feature a life saver and with people going to much bigger monitor screens this would save a lot  of unnecessary mouse movement.

As there are more commands than there are keys on a keyboard.

In Inventor you can customize the Marking menu's for each environment below the righ-mouse button.

Is this something that you want?

Just to expound on this...

 

There is also a CTRL+Right Click Marking Menu available for full customization.  It doesn't come up anywhere except 2D Sketching unless you customize the screen shown above for that Sub Environment.

The CTRL menu was added in 2014.  Its really not that hard to setup, especially when you know the commands you want.  The radial marking menu in Inventor already does a pretty good job on its own.  Also in 2014 they streamlined the OK APPLY CANCEL options when in commands for the menu too.

I use the SpacePilot Pro from 3dConnexions. Easy to have the commands I need for each environment on my motion controller. Plus it allows me to use my LH as well to control the movement on the screen.
