What are the short cut keys to change between the views like top view, front view and things like that in a mac keyboard. as the kets 1, 2 and 3 are now being used for switching between the edge, vertex and face mode. I am a beginner, please do let me know.

Thank you for you help team..:)

Using 2.8, and an iMac.

  • $\begingroup$ Ok, I mainly work on a Macbook and on 2.79 so I may be not the best to tell. Anyway, you could change the shortcuts, for the views I guess it's in the Preferences > Input > 3D View > 3D View (Global) > View Numpad, for the vertex/edge/face select modes: Input > 3D view > Mesh > Call Menu. $\endgroup$

Go to Edit -> Preferences. In the preferences window click the Input tab. On the top click Keyboard, then check the Emulate Numpad box. Pressing numbers 1 and 3 will switch between front view and side view.

edit menu, preferences at bottom

preferences window with the input tab and emulate numpad checkbox
