next camera shortcut?

Sertorial

I have a scene with 12 cameras and I want to be able to switch between viewing through them easily. Does anyone know if there is a keyboard command for "next camera" so I can quickly run through the various views?

Thanks

Not that I can see. I've plonked a bookmark to this thread on my desktop, I think I can see how to script this (get camera list from teh Scene, get the current camera from the viewport, get the index of that camera in the list, add 1, set the viewport to use that camera) but it's highly unlikely to get done until after Christmas.

ok. Thanks RIchard. It's not a big issue. Just wanted to check that I hadn't missed it.

I hate to state the obvious but...why not just use the drop down menu in the upper right of the viewport? DropDown>Cam1---DropDown>Cam2 ect...How big of a rush are you in?

I use the numberpad to switch cameras.

Some of us prefer to work with keystrokes for common actions that don't require a mouse, because it's more efficient.

(We're the same people who suck at MMORPGs because we can't get the hang of the controls :) )
