convenience: G/S/R keys in viewmove set pan/scale/rotate mode
Closed, ArchivedPublicPATCH

Description

tapping a key is less distracting and faster than the middlemouse mouseup/keydown/mousedown sequence, so this adds the G, S and R keys to set grab/scale/rotate viewmove mode.

jim: I'd suggest joining http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/Bf-taskforce25 and emailing a proposal of this functionality to that list (maybe a link to this patch too, make sure to mention it's based off of trunk, eh or at least I assume it is, anyway).

Just a quick note: this patch uses evil gotos, and is for the 2.4x series, so cannot be included as-is into the official tree(s).

As far as functionality goes, it's something that may be worth exploring in a better way in the 2.5 codebase. This kindof resembles the transform tool-type switching, so it may potentially be a useful tweak.
