Making a custom keymap for Blender

Listen Later

A full walkthrough of how I make the Hybridkeys custom keymap for Blender. Recorded in 4.0 but still applicable to later versions (latest version 4.5 as of this writing). Also goes into some of the problems with the keymap editor and the default keymap and things to watch out for while customizing your hotkeys.

Finished keymap can be found on Gumroad or Right Click Select :
