Navigation & command access

Moving around in a model and calling commands.

Before we start drawing, let's quickly review how to navigate and access commands in Rayon.

1

Navigating

Navigation in Rayon is the easiest thing. It can be set from the editor context menu, or from the user settings.

All you need to do is choose a Navigation mode, either using Mouse or Trackpad.

If you are using an Apple Magic Mouse, you should enable the Trackpad mode as it will allow you to swipe to pan.

Mouse mode

• To Zoom, simply scroll.

• To Pan, hold your mouse wheel down and move.

Trackpad mode

• To Zoom, pinch on your trackpad

• To Pan, swipe with two fingers

2

Command access

Command access can be set from the editor context menu, or from the user settings.

It can be set to either shortcut mode or command line mode. Either mode's shortcuts can be found here.

Shortcuts mode

• Allows to trigger a command using single or double stroke shortcut, and no validation stroke.

• You may open the command line with CTRL + K

Command line mode

• Allows to trigger a command using single or double stroke shortcut, and a validation stroke (Space or Enter)

• Type anytime on your keyboard to search for a command.
