Here we can increase the number of undo steps available while working. Just below the CUDA/OpenCL settings are the memory and limit section. If you don’t have a dedicated graphics card just stick to none. This will allow us to take advantage of the power those graphics cards have to help us accelerate Blender. Here we can enable CUDA for Nvidia graphics cards or OpenCL for AMD graphics cards. Next, check “Emulate 3 button mouse” if you don’t have a mouse with a scroll wheel in order to make “alt+left click” act as a middle click. Click the “Emulate Numpad” checkbox in order to have the numbers row above the alphabet act as if they were the numpad numbers. In the input settings we can make life easier for laptop users that are missing the numpad part of the keyboard. This will allow you to toggle selections with the “A” hotkey instead of selecting with A and deselecting with ether “alt+a” or double tapping “A”.įor laptop users, continue to Input, the rest skip to the next paragraph. In the top section you will find those same settings that was available in the quick setup.

When clicking outside the splash screen a second slash screen will appear. We can change the theme if we want or lad in settings from 2.79 if we have used previous version. The default of “Play” which is playing animation is not useful in as many circumstances as the search. We will stick with left select but change the spacebar to search. Here we can change the selection method and spacebar hotkey. When starting Blender, we will be presented with a splash screen only viewable the first time we start Blender.
