Customizing hotkeys

- [Instructor] One of the great things about 3DS Max is it's customizability. We can assign keyboard shortcuts to almost any command. And in this case I want to customize my keyboard shortcuts in order to get quick access to the zoom extends all selected command. And that's down here in the extreme lower right corner. Zoom extends all selected. And what that does is it zooms all of the view ports to enclose the selected object. So if I select something like this plant, and click zoom extends all selected, then all of the view ports zoom to enclose that object or frame it. Well there's no keyboard shortcut for that. There is a keyboard shortcut for its sister command, which is zoom extends all. And that we can get at by holding down the mouse button here and we'll get a fly out. And the white cube here or white box is zoom extends all. And when I choose that from the fly out it also commits the command. So my view ports all zoomed out are all dollied back to enclose all geometry. Okay…
