In Screen Field of View Hotkey

  • it would be great to be able to transition between interior and exterior views seamlessly. Its a real pain in the ass to have to click out of the screen, switch the slider and then click back. If we could key to a mouse 4/5 thumb toggle it would be pretty amazing. this needs to happen like in 2.2 version to be honest.


    Thanks for the hard work.

    tandem.design , pardon, I'm not sure if I fully understand your inquiry - you simply want to be able to set hotkeys for the Field of View functionality, right? How does this involve "transition between interior and exterior views seamlessly" ? You mean zooming in and out basically?

  • Personally I use as 70º FOV for external views and showing site layouts. Internally I use a 100º FOV to see more of the room and get a better feel for the space.

    When presenting between inside and outside views, (to keep these FOV settings) you would have to go back and forth between the settings and the walk-through - Currently I just leave it at 90º


    At the risk of repeating myself, this could be very easy to do if the FOV was saved with the favorite views and changed when you clicked on them. Like Keyframes do. (Or as I am told, like they do when you click to batch render.)

    if the settings were loaded every time you switched to a favorite view, it would fix this issue (as well as many other problems)

    +1 for me, this would also make adjusting composition a breeze. Sometimes we want longer focal lengths to compress the frame and sometimes we want a wider angle. Being able to adjust this "on the fly" would be great.

    Thank you, I've added your upvote and feedback. :)
