Assigned Hotkeys for Variants list

Assigned Hotkeys for Variants list

I would love to see a list per scene of the used Hotkeys and their associated Variants.

 

I realized you can look at each variant and see which hotkey is assigned, but it gets complicated when you are sharing scenes with others.  In several places I've worked it is not unusual to get a quick turn-over request to (for example:) replace old surfaces for updated ones and have it ready for review A.S.A.P.   I may be handed someone else's working file and need to quickly figure out which hotkeys are not taken, to set up Switches.  This would also be useful in order to print out a "cheat sheet".

There is "View > Show Shortcuts..."

Scroll down, to "Variant Sets hotkeys".

I just noticed, the description does not display the variant set name but just the "comment" (which can be set right below the hotkey in the GUI). I guess we should add the name to the description. Besides that, is this what you had in mind?

Edit: Ok, the hotkeys for the Variants are missing. The table just lists them for the Variant Sets.

I learn something new every day!  Ok, that works for me.  Including the Set name in this list would be extra nice.  Then you could have something like- Key: "M", Set: "Environment Switch", Description: "Use Meadow env. with truck" (for example).  Thanks!

Hi Dawn, here is a script that prints a list of used Hotkeys and associated Variant Sets to the console.

It also has a webpage interface to activate basic Hotkeys. [0-9, A-Z]
