The problem i'm having is that i could previously undo in editmode with a single keystroke, which was U. How it's Ctrl-Z, however on my German keyboard the Z is in the top middle of the keyboard! There is no way i can type that with a single hand, considering my hands are rather small.

I'd like the two buttons Z and Y simply interchanged for hotkeys so that it works like a US keyboard, however with them not being interchanged when entering text. And since i use Blender on different computers and OS, the solution should better depend on Blender only.

In fact, i can see how useful a full-fledged hotkey editor would be. One could automate most frequently called functions from multi-tap stroked down to single-tap, and it would show one where possible collisions lie.

@Dread Knight
I agree! But, this can also be used to condense several keystroke steps into one.

Just learn the damn hotkeys…. is that so hard?
I know the hotkeys for 3ds max, maya, xsi, photoshop, gimp, painter, zbrush, mudbox and the list goes on …oh… and let's not forget blender…

I'm not sure but, look in the AutoHotkey Start Menu folder and find the macro recording tool. You can record whatever keystrokes and then see the code created. That ought to tell you what you need.

Sorry, seems I got the wrong key, can anyone tell me what AutoHotKey calls the 'right click' key, just to the right of the Right Windows key? The one with the pointer and menu? Turns out I need that one – I don't even have a Right Windows, thankfully!
Thanks

This could be a cool way to have pre-configured scripts for Maya, Max, etc. users to help them transition over to Blender.

Re-oups. WordPress hates "lower than" char. The pasted script in previous post miss some important lines. Please download the script here :
