====== qckPck (Master) ======
{{ qckpck2018:main_panel.png?nolink|}}

This plugin contains the main panel, it will show a list of available menus and their respective shortcuts. You can either add and activate it via the Master Plugins in LightWave 3D or, preferably, launch it via the [[qckpck2018:generic_qckpck]] plugin.

We recommend assigning [[qckpck2018:generic_qckpck]] to a shortcut, such as 'q'.

Since it can be very tricky to move using the title bar((On Windows, which, unfortunately, can't be changed due to SDK restrictions)), you can also press the cursor keys on the keyboard to judge. Another open is to re-open it using a shortcut, since it always centres under the mouse when opening.

The menus themselves are individual, Generic plugins that can also be assigned to a menu or shortcut individually.
