Why we like it

Hotkeys Unused earns its place in the superhive library for a focused job: surfacing free and duplicate hotkeys across Blender sections, with filters and English or Japanese interface options.

What is Hotkeys Unused?

Hotkeys Unused is a Blender add-on from Vovrzull built around finding free keys. It lets you quickly identify unoccupied keys for each section of Blender, as well as keys that are completely unoccupied throughout Blender.

Filtering covers numerous Blender sections and hotkey combinations, and a filter input lets you search by keypress (refresh the input after entering it). The add-on also includes a function to search for duplicate hotkeys, including duplicates within Blender sections. Numpad hotkeys are supported in search, and recent updates added cleaning buttons for filters. The interface is available in English and Japanese.

The add-on is Blender Extension compatible and works with Blender versions 3.6 through 5.1. It is distributed under the GPL license. Documentation is available, and a demo video can be found on the developer's page.

Frequently asked questions

What Blender versions does Hotkeys Unused support?

Hotkeys Unused works with Blender versions 3.6 through 5.1, covering a wide range of releases. It is listed as Blender Extension compatible, so it fits into the current extension system. If you are running a version within that range, the add-on should install and run as expected. For versions outside 3.6 to 5.1, or to confirm behaviour with a specific build, check the developer's page for the latest details on supported versions before installing.

Is Hotkeys Unused free?

Hotkeys Unused is listed as free in this catalog. It is distributed under the GPL license, which governs how the add-on can be used and shared. Licensing terms and any pricing shown elsewhere can change over time, so for the most current information it is best to check the developer's page directly. That page is also where you will find the download along with documentation for the add-on.

What languages does Hotkeys Unused support?

Hotkeys Unused offers its interface in two languages, English and Japanese. This makes the add-on usable for artists working in either language while identifying unoccupied keys and searching hotkey combinations. Language selection covers the add-on's own interface within Blender. If you need details on switching between the two or how the localisation is set up, the developer's page and documentation are the place to look for further guidance.

Can Hotkeys Unused find duplicate hotkeys?

Hotkeys Unused includes a function to search for duplicate hotkeys, added in a later update. This search also covers duplicates within Blender sections, so you can check for conflicts across the areas you filter. Alongside duplicate detection, the add-on identifies unoccupied keys for each section and completely unoccupied keys throughout Blender. Together these let you review both what is free and what overlaps. See the developer's page and documentation for more on using the duplicate search.
