Flip to instance/Bookmark

Post by Mads Juul »

I think the functionallity of the flip part of my "Mads Juul Panel" Which I released in the content sharing should be part directly in the software.
That means a funtion that goes to next instance if the lighttable is in instance mode or bookmarks if the lighttable is in bookmark mode. I think this is the default function that all(most) animators would want and it should be assigned to the left/ right arrow keyboard shortcuts as default.

That's the way I set up the keys for me - left/right arrow = next instance.

I use the , and . to change instances/bookmarks and the left and right keys to change frames, which is handy if I want to split an instance.

Same here; I have 8,9 for previous and next instance and left/right arrows for frame, because while always working with instances, there are occasions when I need to move in single increments.

But I would also VERY MUCH welcome a single pair of key command that would advance left and right to bookmarks, instances or frames -- all depending on what one selects in the LightTable. That would be such a Key Saver!!!
