Reset Layout
This command resets your CINEMA 4D layout to the original, preset layout. This is particularly useful
if you need to call our support team since you and they then have a common interface from which to
work. Your own customized layouts can increase your workow enormously, but when searching for
an elusive problem a common, standardized layout is essential.
Save As Startup Layout
Saves the current working environment as the startup layout. When you next start CINEMA 4D, this
is the layout that will be used. The startup le is saved in CINEMA 4D’s Prefs folder under the name
‘template.l4d’.
Save Layout As
This command lets you save the current layout. You can create as many layouts as you wish, such as
one for modeling and one for texturing. Layout les take the le extension ‘.l4d’.
Command Manager
Opens the Command manager. In this manager you’ll nd a list of all CINEMA 4D commands, including
their icons and keyboard shortcuts. You can rearrange existing palettes, create your own palettes and
change the short-cuts and hotkeys.
