Command Hotkeys

Find Commands' Hotkeys

If you do not know what are the hotkeys for the command you wish to use, you can open MonKey, and it will be indicated on the right side of the command

You can as well use the command "Print All Commands" to have a complete list of MonKey's Commands, their hotkeys and quick names.

The list of commands bundled with MonKey is also present in the Command section!

Note on parametric commands: hotkeys to parametric commands will open MonKey to the parametric command panel when fired.

Hotkeys Conflicts

Any conflicts between a command's hotkeys and menu items, unity's hotkeys or another command's hotkeys will be indicated when the command is selected.

In case the conflict comes from a menu item external to MonKey, the name of the menu item will be displayed here as well, no matter if you include menu items in the search or not.

Limitations of the hotkeys

MonKey only support hotkey conflicts with menu items and default unity's hotkey. It will currently not detect conflicts with the hotkeys you modified in unity's preferences, or if a plugin uses hotkeys without using menu items.

You can however configure MonKey so that it take into account the new hotkeys as well (See Code References for more).

Changing or Removing MonKey Commands'Hotkeys

We tried to create hotkeys that do not collide with Unity's, and as little as possible with most common asset store plugins.

If another of your plugins has hotkey conflicts with MonKey, or if you simply want to change the default hotkeys, you can do so by editing the c# class found here (if you did not change the default MonKey folder):

Assets/Plugins/Monkey Commander/Editor/Menu Items/MonkeyMenuItems.cs

You will find here all the menu items linked to MonKey Commands.

For more information on how to configure hotkeys for MenuItems, please see the official Unity documentation.

Note: While we included as many hotkeys as we could, we do not ourselves use a lot the hotkeys, only the essentials we use at a given time.

MonKey was created to act as a bridge between hotkeys and menu items, and we find that it is often faster to open MonKey and type the quick name than navigating your brain trying to remember the correct hotkey: remember only the ones you really use regularly :)
