Keyboard shortcuts
The complete key map: scene editing, camera, hierarchy navigation, and the polygon modeling tools. Press ? in the editor for the live list.
Open in the interactive manual →The interactive version has full-text search, a table of contents, and light/dark themes.
Every shortcut below works in the editor. They're suppressed while you're typing in a field, and while any dialog is open, so Delete, D, G, H and A can't quietly edit the scene behind a modal you're reading, and Ctrl+K stands down instead of stacking a palette on top of it. On a Mac, ⌘ stands in for Ctrl. Press ? any time for the in-app list.
