Controls

There are multiple methods available to navigate the viewports in Renderpub, including using only the mouse, only the keyboard, or a combination of both.

Navigation Controls

The WASD controls will feel natural to those who are used to playing shooter games on the PC. They are enabled by default and can only be used when holding RMB. This means you will still use RMB to turn the camera while navigating in this way.

<aside> 🗒️ Viewport navigation is only possible with the Right Mouse Button (RMB) held down.

Navigation speed

You can change the speed of navigation/camera by holding down the RMB and scrolling with the MMB.

Alternatively, you can combine camera speed change with the standard navigation controls by doing as follows; When navigating with WASD while holding down the RMB, you can rotate the mouse wheel up to speed up your movement, or rotate the mouse wheel down to slow down your movement.

If you find the navigation controls mentioned above difficult to use, you can refer to the Camera Controls section for more information and alternative options.

Selection Controls

You can select Actors in the viewport individually simply by clicking on them

Transform Controls

These controls relate to moving, rotating, and scaling Actors in the viewports using the transform tools:
