Області – Areas

Рубежі областей позначаються округлими кутками (підсвічується жовтим).

The Blender window is divided into a number of rectangles called Areas. Areas reserve screen space for Editors – Редактори, such as the 3D Viewport or the Outliner. Each editor offers a specific piece of functionality.

Areas are grouped into Workspaces, which are geared towards particular tasks (modeling, animating and so on).

Примітка

While some keyboard shortcuts in Blender are global (such as Ctrl-S for saving), many depend on which editor the mouse cursor is hovering over.

As an example, say you just selected two objects in the Outliner and want to join them. If you pressed the shortcut for this (Ctrl-J) while the cursor is still in the Outliner, nothing would happen as the shortcut isn’t valid there; you first need to move your cursor to the 3D Viewport.

Зміна розміру – Resizing

You can resize areas by dragging their borders with LMB. Move your mouse cursor over the border between two areas, so that the cursor changes to a double-headed arrow, and then click and drag.

Розділювання – Splitting

Splitting an area will create a new area. Placing the mouse cursor in an area corner will change the cursor to a cross (+) to indicate that pressing down LMB will activate splitting or joining. Dragging from an area corner inward will split the area. You define the split direction by dragging either horizontally or vertically.

Сполучення – Joining

Properties is being joined to the Outliner.

Dragging from an area corner outward will join two areas. The area that will be closed shows a dark overlay. You can select which area will be closed by moving the mouse over it. Release the LMB to complete the join. If you press Esc or RMB before releasing the mouse, the operation will be canceled.

Порада

The cursor will also turn into a cross when hovering over either end of the border between two areas. When splitting or joining, it’s best not to start dragging from this border, but from a corner inside one of the areas.

Опції Області – Area Options

RMB клацання на границі відкриває спливне меню «Опції Області» – Area Options.

Vertical/Horizontal Split

Shows an indicator line that lets you select the area and position where to split. Tab switches between vertical/horizontal.

Сполучити Область – Join Area

Показує напрям накладу для сполучення.

Swap Areas

Swaps this area with the adjacent one.

Обмін Вмістом – Swapping Contents

You can swap the contents of two areas by pressing Ctrl-LMB on one of the corners of the initial area, dragging towards the target area, and releasing the mouse there. The two areas do not need to be side-by-side, though they must be inside the same window.

Дублювати Область у Нове Вікно – Duplicate Area into New Window

Reference – Довідка

Menu – Меню

«Огляд > Область > Дублювати Область у Нове Вікно» – View ‣ Area ‣ Duplicate Area into new Window

A new floating window containing an area can be created from View ‣ Area ‣ Duplicate Area into new Window. (Not available in some editors.)

The new window is a fully functional window, which is part of the same instance of Blender. This can be useful, e.g. if you have multiple monitors.

You can also create a new window from an existing area by pressing Shift-LMB on an area corner, then dragging outward slightly.
