      Am I blind? I'm trying to set a shortcut key for the Explode function but I can't find it in the Windows->Preferences->Shortcuts section. What am I missing?

        You need to select a group/component first, then you should be able to find it under something like edit/component/explode.

            Yeah, this often drives people who haven't experienced it before crazy. There are a bunch of commands you can only perform when something is selected (reverse faces for instance) and until you select the proper entity, no shortcut option appears.

              I had hoped that behaviour would change for SU7. It's not really intuitive. Maybe we can try to make our voice heard for SU8...
