Input Settings

Inputs are defined under the application folder, at Shaderlens.inputs.json (can be opened from the viewport menu: Options ‣ Open Input File).
Each setting can be a string, or an array of strings for multiple options.

Each input string is a combination of one or more of the following values:

Mouse

A-Z 0-9 Num0-Num9 F1-F12

Enter Space Esc Tab Menu Pause Backspace

Left Right Up Down

Insert Delete Home End PageUp PageDown

LAlt RAlt LCtrl RCtrl LShift RShift

(additional Key Enum values could also be used).

Each input settings can have one of the following event specifiers:

• Press(<input>) - The associated action would run on key or mouse button press event (this is the default behavior).

• Release(<input>) - The associated action would run on key or mouse button release event.

• Global(<input>) - The input would be registered as a system-wide hotkey, and the associated action would run on key press event. The expected input is a single key and an optional combination of modifier keys (Alt Ctrl Shift Win).
