Thank you kindly for the response Michael.

I had noticed while experimenting that the tab key set the focus like you said — I'm just too lazy to input another keystroke at times :P That's great news that it seems like there is a solution for this coming out with v4 though.

On the side, as a new user I am having a lot of fun with MoI! As a former design engineer familiar with SolidWorks, MoI has been pleasant to work with. Its speed and simplicity makes it very enjoyable. Still learning the ropes with it, but hopefully soon I'll have something to show the community :D

Hi local306, I'm glad you are liking MoI!

You can get the current v4 beta which has that property in it from http://moi3d.com/beta.htm .

Then you would need to incorporate that into your shortcut key. But hmm there will be a remaining problem that you would be to make the shortcut key do nothing when some command UI was showing but there isn't any way for the shortcut key to tell MoI to continue with the regular behavior as if no shortcut key was set.

The intended behavior is that if you have set a number key as a shortcut key that will then be used for the shortcut instead of sending keystrokes to input fields. If you don't want that then the normal thing is to not set a number key as a shortcut.
