I was thinking about this just a few days ago. This seems like a much better way of teaching people shortcuts than a 20-page cheat-sheet or even "hints" in various menus. No UI clutter, no effort. The program just tells you how to do the same thing in another way. The more you do the "thing", the more likely you are to notice those tips and try out the shortcuts.
I don't think Paint.NET or GIMP do quite what you've described though. They show a history of action, but they don't show commands.
- diggan 9y agoNow I don't have lots of experience with Blender, but I do remember that Blender when hovering a button shows the Title of the interaction, but also a description, shortcut AND the equivalent python code you can run in the terminal to achieve that action. That's pretty awesome. Here is a example: https://i.imgur.com/NNFruMx.jpg https://i.imgur.com/NNFruMx.jpg
