miica's Nvil Config

Hi Everyone,

 I want to share my Nvil's config. I have been using Nvil for a while, since 2012 or 2013. The first time I got it, I spent quite some time customizing it, and over the years, I would keep tweaking my setup.

 Recently I did some spring cleaning to my config because over the years I would add a quick button here and there, add some hotkeys on the spot, and it becomes very messy. This time I put a bit more thoughts on organizing the buttons, hotkeys and the overall setup. I got some inspirations from other configs here too (like RubberDuck's after watching his Youtube videos), and also a bit inspirations coming from Blender and their users (like Heavypoly's video really inspires me)
 
 As Nvil has so many options and functions, and the developer is still adding new features from time to time, to this day there are still many tools and features inside Nvil that I don't know about (even after so many years of using it).
 
 Nvil is quite a complex tool, and I have setup many hotkeys that I don't even remember some of them, and there's all those unexplored tools and features that I hope to document it to help myself and other users.

 So I created a documentation at Read the Docs. I got the idea to do this after seeing the documentation of MESHmachine https://machin3.io/MESHmachine/docs/, I really like those animated gifs, and I wanted to do something of similar fashion too for Nvil. Currently the documentation will just showcase my setup and some Nvil's tools and features.

(Warning: It is still WIP and some part is not updated)

 A downside to my setup is since I work more on character modeling, I don't use too much hard surface techniques like crease edge, and so on... I also utilize a lot of hotkeys instead of buttons or menus.

Install
Backup your current configurations at %APPDATA%\DigitalFossils\Nvil\User Settings first and put my files inside.

I also created a short video to give an overview of my custom interface:

Thank you Miica for sharing

No problem, hung, I hope it helps 

I need to try it, thank you!

Hi Dario, I updated my config:
miica Nvil Config 2020-0119.zip

There are some changes to the hotkeys and some weird choice (for example I use Tab key to select edge loop)

I should properly document the hotkeys, I will do that as soon as I find time.

Let me know if there's anything you need help with when using my config,

Thanks!

Hi Miica,

I saw that you were active on the forum so I wanted to reach out and thank you for the Read The Docs site you did. I haven't adapted your UI because I'm to new to know to or not yet but still found many things helpful being new with NVIL. What a surprise this software has been.

Thanks

Tim

Hi Tim,

Thanks, Love to hear that you find it helpful! ..even though it's been 2 years since I updated it and things have changed but I guess some of the info and gifs still ok. Really hope to be able to get back to rework on the doc in near future!
