I would like to know about the SWITCH GEOMETRY METHODS (global) key other than the G key.
What to look for?
I'm looking for a key that goes back again, not the G key.
And I'm looking for the part that explains this key.
There is nothing in the shortcuts.
What should I search for?

Actually there is a 'Geometry Backwards' command (I didn't look very closely).

It is just not assigned to a shortcut by default.

It is simply a keyboard shortcut that cycles through the available geometry methods for any tool.

It only cycles one way in a continuous loop.

The command is 'Switch Geometry Methods'

I asked because I was curious about where to study if there were more keys used in ARCHICAD.
Example) F, Shift+F in the Pet Palette

Pet Palettes (graphisoft.com)

 

Do you have any other keys to study?

Why doesn't G go backwards? ^^
