Thanks, Dave From bf-docboard@blender.org Thu Oct 16 09:29:07 2003 From: bf-docboard@blender.org (Mike Wirth) Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2003 01:29:07 -0700 Subject: [Bf-docboard] Visual guide to Blender commands? Object semantics? Message-ID: I'm new to Blender and enjoying the process of learning how to use it (on Mac OS X). Has anyone produced a "cheat sheet" (i.e., one or two page visual guide) to the Blender keyboard commands/mouse gestures/button combinations? (Note: I'm aware of Appendix A. I'm suggesting a more visual guide organized by mode, task, etc.) As part of my learning process, I'm sketching one by hand. If none exists yet (or I don't think current ones are sufficiently informative :-) I'll probably produce one in Adobe Illustrator/PDF. Would this list then be the appropriate place to post it for comments and suggestions? (Can I post email with attachments on this list?) If my description of what I want is not clear, I can produce a quick sample, e.g., for object selection. TIA, Mike Wirth Palo Alto, California PS: Haven't gotten that far yet in the manual, but is there a concise description of "object semantics"? (e.g., {I'm guessing here :-} when a group is created with a parent, the location, rotation and scale properties are modified to be relative not to the global coordinates, but to the local coordinates of the parent. Subsequently, translation, rotation and scaling of the group need only be be reflected by changes in the parent object properties. Conversely, rendering a child object requires the composition of all spatial transformations in its parent chain.) Hmm.... some kind of UML description would be ideal, both as a documentation and pedagogic tool, and as a formal spec.

Object semantics? Message-ID: I'm new to Blender and enjoying the process of learning how to use it (on Mac OS X). Has anyone produced a "cheat sheet" (i.e., one or two page visual guide) to the Blender keyboard commands/mouse gestures/button combinations? (Note: I'm aware of Appendix A. I'm suggesting a more visual guide organized by mode, task, etc.) As part of my learning process, I'm sketching one by hand. If none exists yet (or I don't think current ones are sufficiently informative :-) I'll probably produce one in Adobe Illustrator/PDF. Would this list then be the appropriate place to post it for comments and suggestions? (Can I post email with attachments on this list?) If my description of what I want is not clear, I can produce a quick sample, e.g., for object selection. TIA, Mike Wirth Palo Alto, California PS: Haven't gotten that far yet in the manual, but is there a concise description of "object semantics"? (e.g., {I'm guessing here :-} when a group is created with a parent, the location, rotation and scale properties are modified to be relative not to the global coordinates, but to the local coordinates of the parent. Subsequently, translation, rotation and scaling of the group need only be be reflected by changes in the parent object properties. Conversely, rendering a child object requires the composition of all spatial transformations in its parent chain.)
