Rumo That would be amazing, but doesnt work for me. I have to tab before ctrl + z. Annoying thing is that i only type in one direction, so sometimes i have to tab, and some times i dont have to. Is it a bug then?

You said ctrl z reverse the type actions, and when none is left, the event is propagated and goes to the last review. This does not work for me. If there is a type field, it auto focus on it and ctrl z doesnt undo the review for me


Anyway, the addon worked in an unexpected way. After assigning m_toolbox undo": "Alt+Z", ctrl + z worked in the windows again. Since i dont ever need to undo in the type box, i dont have to actually use alt + z. So its just like i disabled the ctrl z in the type field


Can I make Ctrl + Shift + RMB the standard way I orbit without having to press Ctrl + Shift too? I really like being able to rotate around the cursor vs the other options under options view such as around Cplane ect. Any way to make it stick?


When I try to rotate my model with nothing selected and I rotate it 90deg, (like going from front to right view but just using rotate, the rotation point is approximately 300 units in front of both the center extents of the model and the origin. When I hold shift + control and then hit RMB to rotate it grabs the point the mouse was on to use as the rotation point, not the arbitrary 300 units in front of the model. Just wondering if i can set that as default without having to hold Shift+Control.


No command just right mouse button to spin the model around. To try to clarify further, open a model, any model. in perspective view rotate around it using right mouse button. now hold shift + ctrl and right mouse button and see how the behavior is different. I like the way it rotates when holding shift + ctrl and just want to make that default.


Hello - There is a difference if you start rotating (RMB) and then hold Shift or Ctrl-Shift while rotating - that locks things in a different way. That behavior is only available with that combo - start rotating and then while rotating, hold down Shift or Ctrl-Shift. Did I get it?


Hi - like @pascal wrote, the behavior that you like is only available with the Ctrl + Shift combination. The only other way of achieving what you like without that key combination is by setting the view target (with Zoom Target) to the point that you want to rotate the view around.


Hi Ericnistler,

Has your problem been solved? Is your problem the one mentioned in this video? This problem has troubled me for a long time, if there is any solution, please inform, thank you! @ericnistler


To me, it does what I want but it would be much more handy if it would work as suggested in first post

(simply rotating with one mouse button instaed doing zoom>choosing point and area> and only then rotating)


Pretty much as the title says. I just created a new project using the first person template to test some of the new features, and ctrl+s is acting wonky in the material editor and does not work at all for saving changes to the map.


I've tried removing the Ctrl+Y from the wireframe shortcut, and exporting and importing the saved preset, but no matter what I do the little triangle won't go and nothing happens. I can't get Ctrl+Y back as my Redo, very strange as to why they changed a universal command to one that I'll honestly never have any use for.


I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to in the first part of your post but to change the shortcut for Redo just go to Preferences > Shortcuts and then choose Edit from the second popup list on the page, right below the one that says Publisher. Once you've chose Edit you'll be able to change the shortcut for Redo in the list below. This is a Mac screenshot but it will look similar on Windows.


Of all the non-sensical and regressive changes introduced in Version 2, this one is by far the most ridiculous. CTRL+Z and CTRL+Y are without a doubt the 2 most used keyboard shortcuts for any Windows user in literally EVERY application. Suddenly overriding one of these keyboard shortcuts so it instead toggles an obscure view function in your own software instead of the standard OS function that 99% of windows users expect it to do demonstrates an *ASTOUNDING* lack of UX insight and/or arrogance. Did you guys do any UX testing whatsoever for Windows users for Version 2?


While it is the Windows standard, it's not uncommon to use Ctrl+Y for something else. It's been a year since I used the Adobe suite on Windows but I recall that they used Ctrl+Y for other purposes in their apps, too. I googled it just now and found that InDesign uses Ctrl+Y to open the story editor and Photoshop uses Ctrl+Y for Proof Colours.


Sure, its obviously a trivial change to revert - once I actually figured out what was going on. It took a good ten minutes for me to realize it wasn't just a weird bug and I was actually toggling some new view mode I had no idea about.


I do remember Adobe's Ctrl-Shift-Z quirk, but in over 2 decades of using various professional creative/engineering software i think that might be the only software package I can remember that eschews this standard. Even AutoCAD Civil3D (which is infamous for taking over your keyboard) leaves my precious Ctrl-Y alone.


But whether its "standard" or not is irrelevant. Its not that one way is "correct" and the other way is not, its just that the change was abrupt and not communicated. Imagine if Adobe suddenly changed the 'Redo' shortcut back to regular old 'Ctrl-Y' with their next update but didn't communicate it clearly to users before the change was made. There would be chaos. Their users have spent years using Ctrl-Shift-Z for 'Redo' to the point that it has become muscle memory, and now all the sudden it does something different.


Thanks so much for this Walt.farrell - a life-saver for me. I panicked when ctrl+Y 'wrecked' my design, and I tried all sorts of things. In all these attempts to retrieve things I must have done something else as my design became unworkable (though I got it out of wireframe somehow) and I've had to scrap it. Only then did I think to search on ctrl+Y and found your solution. I'd never come across wireframe before and I couldn't do anything but presume I ruined everything. I don't use Affinity Publisher that often, so I've changed redo to ctrl+Y (thanks to your clear explanation) and hopefully I won't repeat my calamity.


Copy the text you want

Place the pointer at the point where you want the text pasting using the formatting at that point in the document.

Press and release the following keys in this order: Alt, H, V, T


Ctrl-shift-V is a paste without formatting, so the text pasted will match the font of whatever else is there. If you paste with ctrl-V a sentence from 3 different websites it will typically look like a ransom note because each sentence will have its own font, size and maybe even indentation or centering.


Unfortunately, it still doesn't work. I know of a workaround: Right click and select the option to confirm the translation and move to the next untranslated segment or "Ctrl+Alt+Enter" but it is not as effective as the shortcut "Ctrl + Enter" and a bit time consuming.


Thank you. It says Ctrl + Enter. I also tried to adjust the shortcut in something else, but it doesn't seem to work. I don't get a notification that the new shortcut is already in use, but I thought perhaps try to adjust it and readjust it again into Ctrl+Enter. Unfortunately, it doesn't help.


Hello, I had the same problem. I have resolved it by mapping control+enter (for mac) into ctrl+enter (for windows) in Parallels Desktop Preferences for virtual machine Windows 11. Maybe this ce n be useful


I was having issues with my Visual Studio and Notepad++ because a commonly used shortcut stopped working. Ctrl+Shift+L is a delete line shortcut. ReLive doesn't use this exact shortcut but it seems to capture and block the shortcut from passing to other apps - even when ReLive is disabled/turned off (but still installed).


Since my original post I actually found out how to disable the shortcut but didn't post anything here because there was little interest in this issue (apart from one unhelpful reply ). However, you seem to be genuinely just as annoyed as I was, so hope this helps.


To remove the shortcut (not an obvious process at all!) you need to click the Toggle Performance Logging Hotkey button, it will then ask to enter your hotkey, you then press delete - that is Del (not backspace, not esc or anything else - the Del key).


There has already been a few update releases since the original post in this thread, yet this problem persists. The only solution appears to be to wholly uninstall the drivers package. Whether you install the full Adrenalin Edition or the AMD Minimal Setup version, and opt to *not* install the AMD ReLive, the AMD ReLive: Desktop Overlay and AMD ReLive: Host Application are still installed, are running as active processes, and still function to: as ritchie says above, "As said above, the exact shortcut isn't even used. ReLive is intercepting ALL Ctrl + Shift + [any letter] key combos and interfering with other applications' shortcuts."


Follow up: I installed the Adrenalin Edition 18.5.2 Optional version and chose this time to *not* install the System. Either this is the work around, or AMD has actually addressed the issue in this optional release, but neither the AMD ReLive: Desktop Overlay nor the AMD ReLive: Host Application are running. I restarted my system twice to be sure. I was also never given the option to check/uncheck the install ReLive which may be for the reason I chose to not install the System.
