Hi Kreten,

> Is it possible to assing shortcuts to different commands in MoI?

Yes, this is possible by editing the moi.ini file, see here for some details: http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=35.1 and there are also some other useful keyboard mini-scripts mentioned here: http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=204.3

There's actually a faster way than that already built in - just type the number that you want and push enter, no need to push d first.

If you start typing numbers while drawing a curve, your keystrokes will go to the x/y/z coordinate prompt in the bottom toolbar. But if you type just a single number in there instead of x,y,z , when you push enter, it will put that value into the distance box, same as if you had clicked in the distance box. Except for if you type "0" - that is an alias for 0,0,0.

You can also type a number prefixed by the '<' sign into the x,y,z coordinate box and it will put that angle into the angle constraint box, so this is how you can set the angle by just immediate keystrokes (like '<45' instead of needing to click inside that angle box.


> Very nice Interface!!!

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!


> Also maybe a SmartTrack option?

The equivalent to this in MoI is called "Construction lines" - you can get one by doing a click and drag motion with the mouse instead of a click and release, there is a section in the introductory documentation that goes over some of the details: http://moi3d.com/beta/MoI_Introduction.htm .

Construction lines work a little differently than SmartTrack because it stays out of your way until you explicitly call for it with a drag motion. Then when you do actually call it, it gives you a few more additional snapping options than a single-point based snapping like SmartTrack or Drawing Assistant does, because the construction line is based off of 2 points instead of radiating out only from a single point, so stuff like the midpoint between 2 points and the reflected endpoints are also available with Construction lines. Let me know if you need more details on this.
