Shortcuts by function

To view or change keyboard shortcuts

In Keyboard Options, type a shortcut for a key.

Note

Rhino menus list the default keyboard shortcuts. If you change a command to a different shortcut, the menus do not update to reflect this change.
Many of these shortcuts can be changed and you can add new shortcuts and aliases.
