Time | Narration |
00:02 | Welcome to the series of Blender tutorials. |
00:05 | This tutorial is about the User Preferences window in Blender 2.59. |
00:12 | This script has been contributed by Bhanu Prakash and edited by Monisha Banerjee. |
00:22 | After watching this tutorial, we shall learn what is User Preferences window; |
00:30 | what are the different options available in the User Preferences window; |
00:36 | and how to customize the Blender interface using the User Preferences window. |
00:43 | I assume that you know the basic elements of the Blender interface. |
00:48 | If not, then please refer to our earlier tutorial- |
00:52 | Basic Description of the Blender Interface. |
00:58 | Go to File at the top left corner of the Blender interface. |
01:05 | Left click to open File. |
01:08 | Here, is a list of options which have been explained already in the tutorial File Browser and Info Panel. |
01:19 | Select User Preferences. |
01:22 | For keyboard shortcut, press Ctrl, Alt & U. |
01:32 | This is User Preferences window. |
01:38 | Go to Interface at the top left corner of the User Preferences window. |
01:45 | This contains several options for customizing the Blender interface. |
01:50 | The basic required options are already activated by default. |
01:56 | Display Mini Axis controls the size of the mini axis present at the bottom left corner of the 3D view. |
02:05 | The default size is 25. |
02:09 | I am using Size 60 for better viewing purposes in the Blender Tutorials series. |
02:16 | Let me demonstrate. |
02:18 | Close the User preferences window. |
02:24 | At the bottom left corner of the 3D view, we can see the mini axis. |
02:32 | The mini axis represents the global transform axis of the 3D space in Blender. |
02:40 | It is useful when animating in Blender. |
02:44 | We will discuss about global and local transform axis in detail in subsequent tutorials. |
02:52 | Press Ctrl, Alt & U to open the User Preferences window. |
03:00 | Activate Rotate around selection . |
03:06 | This enables you to orbit around the center of the selected object. |
03:12 | Let us see what this means. |
03:15 | Close the User preferences window. |
03:19 | Right-click the lamp in the 3D view. |
03:27 | Press and hold mouse wheel or middle mouse button and move your mouse. |
03:35 | We are orbiting around the selected object. |
03:42 | Similarly, right-click the Camera. |
03:47 | Press and hold mouse wheel or middle mouse button and move your mouse. |
03:55 | Now, we are rotating around the camera. |
04:03 | Press Ctrl, Alt & U to open the 'User Preferences window'. |
04:10 | Left-click Editing. |
04:14 | This contains parameters that reflect the behavior of Blender in Object editing mode or the Edit Mode. |
04:24 | Again, the basic options already activated by default. |
04:32 | Global undo increases/decreases the number of undo steps that might be required while editing. |
04:44 | Left click Input. |
04:46 | Here, we can customize all the keyboard shortcuts used in Blender. |
04:53 | Emulate 3-Button Mouse will make your 2-button mouse behave like a 3-button mouse in Blender. |
05:04 | Select with can change the selection option of your mouse from right to left. |
05:12 | This is useful for left-handed users. |
05:19 | Emulate numpad will make the number keys on your keyboard behave like the numpad keys in Blender. |
05:29 | This is useful for laptop users who don't have a separate numpad on the keyboard. |
05:41 | Left click Add-Ons. |
05:43 | This contains the list of plug-ins in Blender. |
05:49 | Left-click Enabled . |
05:52 | Some plug-ins are activated by default. |
05:55 | Other plug-ins can be installed from the respective website. |
06:00 | For example, let us install a plug-in for crating clouds. |
06:07 | Left click Object. |
06:11 | Left click on the triangle next to Object : Cloud generator. |
06:19 | Left click Link to Wiki. |
06:23 | This link opens a web-page on our internet browser. |
06:29 | I am using Firefox 3.09 internet browser. |
06:35 | Here, we can download and install the Cloud Generator plug-in for Blender. |
06:42 | Just follow the instructions on this page. |
06:47 | The steps shown here are similar in all internet browsers. |
06:56 | Left click Theme. |
06:59 | Here, you can change the color of each panel of the Blender interface. |
07:09 | For example, left-click Timeline. |
07:14 | Here, you can see the color of the Current Frame indicator, Grid and all other attributes as well. |
07:24 | Left click the green bar next to current frame. |
07:30 | This is the colour mode window in Blender. |
07:38 | The white dot here, over the green area, controls the colour of the Current Frame indicator. |
07:45 | I am going to change it to red. |
07:49 | Left click the white dot, hold and drag your mouse to the red area. |
07:58 | Release left-click. |
08:01 | Notice, how the values of 'RGB' have changed as well. |
08:07 | In this way, we can change the colour of the other listed options too. |
08:15 | Left click File. |
08:20 | Here, we can set the location of Fonts, Textures, Plugins, Render Output, Scripts, Sounds etc. on our system. |
08:38 | Let us set the location for Fonts. |
08:42 | Left click the file icon at the right end of the first rectangle bar. |
08:53 | A file browser opens. |
08:56 | By default, we are inside the local C drive directory. |
09:02 | Left click the Windows directory. |
09:07 | Navigate to Fonts. |
09:11 | Left click Accept at the top right corner of the screen. |
09:19 | A path has appeared on the first rectangle bar. |
09:25 | Blender now knows where to look for the fonts on our system. |
09:32 | Similarly, left click the File icon at the right end of the second rectangle bar. |
09:40 | Again, the file browser opens. |
09:43 | Now, we can set the location for the textures on our system like we did for the fonts. |
09:52 | What if I want to exit this file browser without selecting a location for the textures? |
10:00 | Left click Back to previous, next to help, at the top of the screen to return to the 'User Preferences window'. |
10:11 | There is no path visible on the second rectangle bar because I did not select one. |
10:20 | Left click System. |
10:23 | Here, we can customize the Blender settings according to the properties of the computer we are using. |
10:29 | DPI changes the font size and resolution for display in Blender; |
10:36 | the default DPI in Blender is 72. |
10:42 | I am using DPI:90 for better viewing purposes in the Blender tutorials series. |
10:52 | Save As Default, at the bottom left corner, is used to save our customized changes in the Blender interface. |
11:01 | For keyboard shortcut, press Ctrl & U. |
11:07 | So, this was the basic information about the 'User Preferences window'. |
11:13 | Apart from these, there are other options present in 'user preferences window' which will be discussed in the later tutorials. |
11:25 | Now, try to open the 'user preferences window' in Blender using the keyboard shortcut. |
11:33 | Then, using Rotate around selection, make the cube the centre of rotation in the '3D view'. |
11:42 | Install cloud generator plug-in for Blender, |
11:47 | change the colour of the current crame indicator in the timeline and set the location for render output on your computer. |
11:57 | All the best! |
12:02 | And that completes this tutorial on User Preferences. |
12:10 | This Tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT. |
