Readme

Blender's views live on the numpad, which laptops do not have. Hold Caps Lock and 0 to 9 send the numpad keys, only while Blender is in front. Caps Lock + 1 is front view, + 3 is right view, + 7 is top view.

Needs Rebind 3.5.0 or newer on Windows or macOS. No extra permissions.

Settings

  • Hold for the numpad: the layer key. Default Caps Lock, which no longer toggles caps in Blender while the package runs.
  • Sends numpad 0 to Sends numpad 9: the key held with the layer key for each numpad key. Defaults 0 to 9. Key changes apply while the package runs on Rebind 3.9 or newer; on older versions, restart the package.

Limits

  • On macOS, Caps Lock reaches Rebind as a switch, not a held key: the first press turns the numpad layer on and the next press turns it off. Pick another layer key, such as Right Option, if you want hold-for-numpad.
  • The focused program's process name must contain "blender".
  • The macOS start notice appears in Rebind. To see notices on the desktop, turn on Desktop notifications in Rebind's settings.
  • Live use remains unverified on Windows and macOS.

Stop

Stop the package from the editor toolbar, or press Left Ctrl + Left Alt + K to stop all scripts.
