Add 'view selection' and 'view all' shortcuts on mouse.
Keymapp a list of shortcut for almost all editor where:
- mouse button 4 (often used as 'previous' action) is used to "get back", fit all elements in view. (like home button)
- mouse button 5 (often used as 'next' action) is used to "go to", focus on selected items. (like numpad period button)
In the addons preferences you can choose to invert (button 4 to focus and button 5 to view all) :
It does NOT affect any original shortcut on keyboard.
Usual location of button 4 and 5 on a mouse with basic extra buttons (this may vary a lot on different device)
The location of home key and numpad period are far from both hands and force you to quit temporarily your rest positions, tending to break the workflow fluidity.
- Ctrl + mouse button 5 Toggle isolate selection (numpad slash button)
- Shift + mouse button 4 Snap 3D cursor to selection
