Hidden Hotkeys

In Construct 2 various actions had hotkeys assigned to them, and they had a reminder text so you'd know what you could press. Hotkeys allow for making more efficient progress when making games.

Construct 3 still has hotkeys, but they're a secret. I don't think there's a way to learn them as easily, or find out which things can be accessed with them.

Here are the ones I use, that I can remember with muscle memory from using C2 and from experimentation, in event sheets:

• Q = Comment

• V = Variable (local or global)

• S = insert Subevent

• B = insert Blank subevent

• C or E = add a Condition

• A = add an Action

• D = toggle Disabled

• R = Replace object

Thanks for that. My bad, I searched for hotkeys in the manual but never found them that way.

I think the way that C2 shows the letters in menus/tooltips is quite useful for learning the shortcuts. As you go to select "toggle disabled" if it said "D" then I'd straight away learn I could be pressing "D" instead of navigating the menu each time, that constant reminder that I could be more efficient by pressing a key instead is pretty handy.
