This was recently a hotly requested feature on Twitter for the X to delete hotkey, and it’s cool to see how fast it made it in as an available option for any relevant hotkey.įiles in the File Browser can now be dragged and dropped by grabbing their name and not just their icon. Operator confirmations can now be disabled by turning off the Confirm property for that shortcut in the keymap settings. More context menus now open with the last used item highlighted. The Outliner can now filter by Grease Pencil objects. In Blender 3.6, whole menus or sub-menus can be added to your Q hotkey quick favorites, which makes things much easier to organize. You just have to make sure that Alt is held down when you hit Enter to confirm. The Alt-click hotkey for changing the properties of multiple objects at once now works for string properties such as the object’s name.

And by heavens I suppose I mean Harley the UI developer. The color picker popup no longer gets cut off if it’s too close to the edge of the screen, thank heavens. So, if you really want to name your objects with the jellyfish or shaky face emoji, only your own conscience can stop you now. I might regret telling everyone this, but did you know that Blender supports basic emojis? It now also supports all 31 new ones included in Unicode 15. No idea who would need that though… *cough* me *cough*.

The Open Recent menu now includes 20 items rather than 10, which is great for all those people who have a lot of unfinished projects lying around. Tabs in the Properties editor show the name of the tab immediately on hover, which should help new users find the right one more quickly. There’s nothing wildly different in this version, but as usual, Blender is continuing to get a little cleaner and more intuitive with every update.
