For those that did machineama, Ctrl-Alt-1 was essential as it toggles the entire UI on and off. Now I'm stuck filming with buttons and a menubar on my screen, and it's been like that since like 1.17.

Are we going to get that back someday? or has it been changed to a new keycombo or something? I'd love to be able to film again, especially since I spent $1300 on the hardware and software to make much smoother films! o.o

On the Client Rendering Features menu, I think you will see that a number of keystrokes have been changed from control alt number to control alt functionkeynumber , ie, Ctrl Alt 1 is now Ctrl alt F1.

I think this was done because of conflicts with the use of Ctrl-Alt-Number keystrokes on some non-english keyboards.

Hi Psyra!

There was/is talk about changing the shortcuts again, because the current ones conflict on some obscure OS, so now would be a good time to check what menu item(s) the shortcut(s) actually stand for and the next time they change you won't be clueless again.

I'd suggest LL to just provide client with customizable keyboard shortcuts. But they'd have already know but anyway.

It changes the screen to terminal 1 on Linux, so it's not very helpful. I also wouldn't call Linux "obscure".
