Hey, I’d like to be able to select objects and quickly assign them to a layer without having to move my cursor down to the colored box and clicking on it. Is this possible? Due to my use case, I have to change lots of objects back and forth so this would save me a lot of time.
Just to be clear, if, for example, I have a square shape selected on the grid, could I create a hotkey to assign it to the blue layer named “01”? So instead of having to move my cursor down to the colored layer box, I can instead press “1” on my keyboard, to assign it to that layer.
Yes, yes you can. With the release of version 1.3 and up, LightBurn provides a ‘Hotkey Editor’, allowing you to set as you describe. Well, not exactly as you describe , as you will need to use a modified character key for your Hotkey assignment. Below, I show I have just set Hotkeys for layer C01 and C02 to share this feature.
Whoa! Thanks for your reply with screenshot. That is awesome news and such a time-saver. I am loving this software more every day. Thanks again for your help - made my day.
