Keymaps and Names¶
Keymaps¶
Preferences > Keymap offers three presets:
- Moritz (default)
Max’s keys where Max has one, Blender’s where Max has none. Tab toggles Object / Edit Mode besides 1–6, Space maximizes the viewport besides Alt+W, X opens search.
- Max
3ds Max 2026’s default keys, as close as Blender allows. Search is on X.
- Blender
Blender’s own keymap, unchanged.
In Moritz and Max the middle mouse always navigates, also with a tool active.
Menus and tooltips show Blender’s shortcut next to the current one where they differ.
Name schemes¶
Preferences > Keymap > Names sets what menus and buttons are called:
- Follow Keymap
The scheme of the chosen keymap.
- Blender
Blender’s names.
- Max
Max’s names wherever Max has one: Weld for Merge by Distance, Chamfer for Bevel, Attach for Join, TurboSmooth for Subdivision Surface, Lathe for Screw.
- Moritz
Max’s names, with Blender’s name in the tooltip.
The names are a translation of the interface: files, the Python API and F3 search under Blender’s names are unaffected.
