This Blender Interface Tutorial explains everything for beginners how to better understand the interface of Blender<\/a> and how to configure it properly. Interface is arguably the most important part of any software<\/strong>. Bad interface design can ruin all experience related to using even the most convenient programs. But even a good interface can feel terrible if you do not know how to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, Blender has a really good user interface design<\/strong>. Though it is a bit unique, so it can be hard to handle for a beginner<\/strong>. If you opened Blender for the first time – you would better read the Blender Basics Tutorial: Part 1<\/a>, where we introduce the interface and its very basics. And you can use the How to Move in Blender<\/a> article to learn moving around the 3D space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Blender is a very customizable software<\/strong>. You can change everything ranging from button functionality to the whole theme of the interface. For example you can use Maya presets<\/strong> that make Blender feel a lot more like Maya – a very popular 3D software. So if people come into Blender from there – they will be a lot more comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
