-andrew- Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Hi all, Following along with this video, and when Matt says to right-click and "show controls", nothing happens on my end... Any advice / way to reset all key commands to default? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FZnoob Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I know this may sound silly, but do you have the object selected? If so and the "show controls" isn't working a restart usually corrects it. This happens to me quite a lot when doing sub d modeling. The "show controls" gets stuck "on" or "off" as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey there... thanks for the quick reply.... yes, definitely selected! Restart didn't work. Sub-d, and/or some form of box modeling is exactly what I'm looking into, so getting this to work is pretty important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FZnoob Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I take it the keyboard shortcut isn't working either? Are you using any sort of custom workspace? Those can be problematic at times. About the only thing I could suggest is a fresh install. Maybe someone else has another solution. Restarting the app always fixes it for me.

FZnoob Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Also, If you go to the top menu bar: Edit / key shortcuts you can get the “shortcuts manger” pallet from there you can select “load defaults” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-andrew- Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Glad you mentioned keyboard shortcuts! I don't actually know if there is a default, but noticed that the Nurbs Edit mouse button was ALSO set to Primary (left)... not sure how that happened, as I've never used this command before! I'm going to load defaults. Just getting back into FZ so I could use some re-familiarization thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew West Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Another simpler solution is to throw out your preference folder. I have had to do that quite a lot in the past year but the latest version I have seems to be much more stable. Version 10213. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew West Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Your pref folder if you don't know is located at C- Users-Computer Name-App Data-Roaming-Autodessys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FZnoob Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Just wondering if you ever got this sorted out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-andrew- Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hey there - sorry for the lack of response. Yes... didn't realized I had to choose the Pick tool first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FZnoob Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 That's what I meant when I asked if you had the object selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-andrew- Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 Ah. The object remained orange, so I assumed it was selected... since nothing else was orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FZnoob Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 That is a feature that highlights an object when you mouse over it. You can turn that off in the preferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTEK Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The orange highlight is related to an interface option called something like "buffer preview" and it's related to this temporal state when you generate a parametric object that can be edited immediately to compare different results, etc... on the other hand, the red highlight when you hover on objects is called Selection Preview and it's just for that, preview the selection...
