Keymap

The key-map editor lets you adjust your key-map via:

Presets:Predefined key-maps which come with Blender and can be added to. Preferences:Key-maps may define their own preferences to change the functionality or add additional key bindings. Key Map Items:You may add/remove/edit individual key-map entries.

Blender Preferences Key-map section.

Preset Management

Keymap Presets

Select the key-map from a list of predefined key-maps.

Import

Importing opens a File Browser to select a .py file to add to the list of key-map presets.

Export

Saves the current key-map configuration as a preset others may use.

All Keymaps

When disabled, only the key-maps and categories that have been modified by the user will be exported. In addition, add-ons may register key-maps to their respective functions, however, these key-maps are not exported unless changed by the user. This exported file may be thought of as a «key-map delta» instead of a full key-map export.

When enabled, the entire key-map is written.

Known Limitations
