This cheat sheet can’t cover all of Blender’s hotkeys (it’s been tried), but it can give you a pretty good start.  \nMOUSE INTERACTION (IN THE 3D VIEW)  \nLeft Mouse Button (LMB) : Place 3D cursor or confirm operation Middle Mouse Button (MMB) : Orbit around 3D space Shift+MMB: Pan across 3D space  \nCtrl+MMB or Scroll Mouse Wheel: Zoom in and out of 3D space Right Mouse Button (RMB) : Select item or cancel operation  \nKEYBOARD HOTKEYS  \nGENERAL INTERFACE  \nSpacebar: Search  \nShift+Spacebar: Maximize editor area (toggle hotkey) Shift+A: Add object menu  \nN: Show/Hide Properties region (toggle hotkey)  \nT: Show/Hide Tool Shelf (toggle hotkey)  \nEsc: Cancel operation  \nF12: Render scene  \nTRANSFORMS  \nG: Grab (translate)  \nR: Rotate  \nS: Scale  \nWHILE TRANSFORMING  \nX , Y , or Z: Constraint transformation to the X, Y, or Z axis, respectively  \nHold MMB: Bring up visualization for locking transformation to an axis  \nSELECTION  \nA: Select all/none (toggle hotkey)  \nB: Border select  \nC: Circle select  \nCtrl+Drag LMB: Lasso select Shift+G: Select Grouped menu Shift+L: Select Linked menu  \nWHILE IN BORDER OR CIRCLE SELECT Drag LMB: Add to selection  \nDrag MMB: Remove from selection  \nRMB: Cancel selection mode  \nMODES  \nTab: Edit/Object mode (toggle hotkey)  \nCtrl+Tab: Weight Paint mode (for objects), Pose mode (for armatures), or change selection mode (while in Edit mode on a mesh object)  \nV: Vertex Paint mode  \nNAVIGATION  \nOn the numeric keypad (numpad):  \n0: Camera  \n1 : Front  \n3: Side  \n7: Top  \n5: Orthographic/Perspective (toggle hotkey)  \nCtrl+1 , 3 , or 7: Opposite view (back, other side, bottom)  \nEDITORS  \nShift+F1 : File Browser Shift+F2: Logic Editor Shift+F3: Node Editor  \nShift+F4: Python Console  \nShift+F5: 3D View  \nShift+F6: Graph Editor  \nShift+F7: Properties Editor  \nShift+F8: Video Sequence Editor  \nShift+F9: Outliner Shift+F10: UV/Image Editor Shift+F11 : Text Editor  \nShift+F12: Dope Sheet  \nADDITIONAL NOTES  \n• You rarely ever need to hold down a hotkey. It’s almost always a press-and-release thing. You confirm with LMB click.  \n• Alt+ almost any of the above hotkeys will do the inverse operation or set a default value.  \n• Although this cheat sheet is specific to Blender’s 3D View, many of the same hotkeys and mouse moves will also work in other Blender editors.  \n[opensource.com](opensource.com) [Twitter](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC)[ @](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC)[opensourceway](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC)[ |](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC)[ facebook.com/opensourceway](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC)[ |](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC)[ CC](Twitter @opensourceway | facebook.com/opensourceway | CC) BY-SA 4.0","cbCaidK02SbTDMUe","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidK02SbTDMUe","pdf",108316,"English","# Mouse Interaction (in the 3D View)\n# Keyboard Hotkeys\n## General Interface\n## Transforms\n## While Transforming\n## Selection\n## Modes\n## Navigation\n## Editors\n## Additional Notes","[{\"question\":\"What are the mouse shortcuts for orbiting, panning, and zooming in Blender’s 3D view?\",\"answer\":\"Use MMB to orbit, Shift+MMB to pan, and Ctrl+MMB or the scroll wheel to zoom in and out.
