Attempt to use any of the CSG operation shortcuts (Ctrl+Shift+G to Union, +U to Separate, or +N to Negate).
Right-click on any BasePart in the Explorer window.
Expected Behavior
I expect using the CSG operation shortcuts to perform the requested CSG operations, and for the available CSG operations to appear in the right-click drop-down on BaseParts in the Explorer window.
Actual Behavior
Attempting to use the operation shortcuts does not perform the requested CSG operations.
Right-clicking on BaseParts or Unions in the Explorer panel does not give any option to perform CSG operations in the drop-down.
Workaround
The right-click drop-down works as expected in the world view, showing the CSG operations that are available. This does not give sufficient feedback about precisely what Iām about to perform the operation on, however.
Issue Area: Studio Issue Type: Other Impact: Moderate Frequency: Constantly
EDIT: Changed title to remove mention of the explorer pane, as that it intended behaviour. Post body remains unchanged.
Regarding the shortcuts not working-- is this still an issue? We are unable to reproduce it in production at the moment. If it is, please let us know the reproduction steps (if it changed), your Studio version number, and the list of beta features you currently have enabled.
Additionally, for the explorer context menu. Internally, we feel like simply adding it to the context menu isnāt the correct solution, and are currently working out methods to improve the context menu as a whole, which would include more options in the explorer context menu. However, while that work goes on, we are trying to keep the changes in the menu minimal.
I can confirm this is still an issue as of version 0.578.0.5780566, and the repro steps have not changed; pressing Ctrl+Shift+G does not perform a Union operation with multiple parts selected, but the viewport context menu option works fine. My currently active beta features are:
Do you perhaps have custom shortcuts overriding it? I turned on all of the beta features you have, but the shortcuts still worked for me (Ctrl + Shift + G).
Check in File > Advanced > Customize Shortcuts, then search for Union.
I just wanted to add, this is not indicative of anything being amiss, itās the expected behavior. The CSG operations are only ever shown in the 3d Viewport context menu, never the Explorer one.
I can confirm I donāt have any custom shortcuts overriding it - I searched both āunionā and āctrl+shift+gā and both returned only the union shortcut (as an aside, I didnāt know we could customise shortcuts, this is sure to come in handy!).
Good to know! Should I file a suggestion for this? I often use the explorer pane to select parts rather than the viewport because I tend to do it by name or by model, so having the option in there also would be a help.
Hello @Auhrii I am looking into this bug and I cannot reproduce the hotkey issue either.
Is it possible that this is a plugin issue? If you disable all plugins does the problem go away?
What about the shortcut editor? If you do file->advanced->Customize Shortcuts, then press āgā to search for rows that contain a G, do you see anything else in the āshortcutsā column that looks like a conflict?
Iām currently running Studio version 0.604.0.6040509, on Windows 11 Pro version 10.0.22621.
Ctrl+Shift+G is also still listed as the Union shortcut in the context menu, and the context menu button works as expected, however the shortcut does nothing. The same is the case for Ctrl+Shift+U for Separate, but Ctrl+Shift+N to Negate and Ctrl+Shift+I for Intersect work without issue.
What happens if you click the "Restore Defaultsā button on the keyboard short customization pane?
Does that help?
this really seems like something about your particular configuration
Okay, Iāve asked others here to try and reproduce on PC machines, and they do not see the problem you are seeing.
So for now thereās nothing we can do on our end. Unless we can reproduce it, we canāt fix it.
Also, note that as @DeFactoCepti stated earlier, we wonāt be adding these to the explorer menu. That has been left out by design and we do not want to add complexity to that menu.
@Auhrii another suggestion if āRestore Defaultsā does not work in the shortcut customization pane:
It is possible they you some software catching those keys, not Robox. Like, AMD Radeon software would toggle streaming using this keyboard shortcut. I would recommend to close as many as possible items in system tray area and try again
All this time, it appears to have been AMDās Radeon Adrenalin software. I did disable its hotkeys a long time ago and so it never occurred to me that it might be a problem, but reinstalling it since may have wiped that setting. Disabling Radeon hotkeys once again appears to have solved this issue, thanks!
We are closing this bug now since the hotkey issue is resolved, and the Explorer menu is not going to be addressed, after we spent time discussing the design.
