1:10 Scroll with the _left_ mouse button?? Huh? For me, that does a box select. Scrolling is middle mouse button. Are my Blender settings non-default? I thought this was the default...
Well ..... yes. That's a mistake. It's most definitely MMB and (when it comes to scrolling at least) there's nothing out of the ordinary about your Blender settings. I think I got a little lost in wave after wave of keyboard shortcuts and this blunder escaped unseen into the wild. There's a neat way to fix the issue - I think... but in the meantime I'm pinning your comment. You saw something and you said something. Thank you
@@harryblends Similarly, though this one might not be a mistake: Moving a node says G-then-LMB, and shows it moving around, as if you have to do G-then-LMB to move, but actually you do G to move, then LMB to confirm placement after moving. Maybe that one's not a mistake, just said differently than I expected?
@@harryblends ha ha ha - wave after wave of keyboard shortcuts... I feel you... please keep doing with these tutorials, they are just brillant my sir... even if I try to scroll with left button? or was it right? was it button? :)
Extra note , some times getting out of a node group that does have many node groups inside it can be really hard using tab , so the better way to exit a node group is ctrl+tab And man keep going , i really love your videos 🔥
Unbelievable production quality on these - bravo! Great tutorial too. If TH-cam is a rational market, it should only be a matter of time before your efforts are rewarded with much higher view counts. Keep at it!
level 4: add the shortcut `O`. this connects geometry to the output of the current group (as appsed to ctrl + alt + RMB, which connect it to the most outter output).
Yes. It's not in level 4 because it's a node wrangler shortcut. I should have included it in level 5 though. I left quite a lot out in that level because I thought that 15 minutes was a lot for a parade of shortcuts. I'll include 'O' in future versions though. Thank you!
@@harryblends hmm i remember it working with node wrangler disabled. I don't use it; i only suggested it since i remembered it being built it. but i could be mistaken. I guess i have to check it up again.
That mention of the trouble with Shift+D generating nodes in *precisely* the same spot is very important. I once spent *hours* debugging a complicated node setup where I must have accidentally Shift-D'd a whole load of nodes and not moved them at all. I honestly wish there was an indicator for that.
It's happened to me so many times. In a complex setup it can be so hard to diagnose you start to lose confidence in your sanity. An indication that a node is overlapping another would be great.
5:48. This is such a well put video, that I hesitate to mention you say control+shift+D to duplicate with links, but the box on the screen says control+alt+lmb... 😅
Ah. Thank you. The irony is - it says the wrong shortcut because I used shift+D to duplicate the one that said Ctrl+Alt+LMB. Oh, well. I'll fix it in the file. I'll probably need to do an update of this video before too long and will acknowledge your keen observation skills when I do ....
@@harryblends I'm very familiar with the disadvantage of duplicates: they have all that we want to keep, but none of what we want to change... If only there was a way to tell whether something is an identical clone of the original, or just its sibling... 😂
That is actually more than beginners friendly geo node introduction. I have a question for you mate I have a grid with 24 verts in X axis and only 2 in y axis and I wanna select certain edges for example selecting every other edge to make a wave based on the geometry | | | Or I wanna select every two || ||

I wonder how do you make these hybrid animations where you dynamically switch from a playback to actually modeling like at 0:30 ? Is your cursor movement pre-recorded ? Thanks
It’s a composite of a screen-capture of the 3d viewport and a render of the same animation (with transparency). There’s a crossfade in the middle of the move to blend them together. The mouse is from the capture - I had the blender window smaller than full screen so I could move the mouse in from offscreen. The animation/setup is in the file available for free on my patreon - www.patreon.com/HarryBlends
Awesome work. BTW if you are a Neanderthal like me who still uses 'right click select' and ''Emulate Three Button Mouse'' then some of these shortcuts may not work.
Thank you. I can imagine that some of them won't. Sadly. That's the trickiest thing with input related blender tutorials - there's so much customization that we can all do.

I wish all Blender tutorials were like these, from the presentation to the humour they're just a joy to watch.
Thank you!
Terrific job on this. I learned some new things and had fun watching it.
Quickly becoming my favorite blender channel. Amazing work, Harry!
Thank you!
15:35 I'm glad you didn't delete the Jam Sandwiches node, and I can't explain quite why.
You should never delete your jam sandwiches
What a great spirit in the effort of teaching. Thank you!
the best geo tutorials ? Sir Harry Blends!!
0:28 OMG That transition 🤯
Ha. Thanks. Almost the entire tutorial is in the geometry node editor so I wanted to make something visually distinct while I could
@harryblends You're tutorials are so interesting visually. Do not stop Dude 🙏
this video format is very polished and effective , thank you
u need an award for ur last 2 vids on Geo nodes
I'm going to have to watch this again and take notes. Learned too much to remember it all on one viewing,
very cool. didnt know a lot of these even though Ive been doing geometry nodes for quite a while
Thanks. I was surprised by how many I'd never heard of when writing this. It's a really impressive set of tools
Thank you
I have sworn my life to the"Re-route" gods;
For our noodles are straight,
and our nodes are clean.

@@harryblends it's not a node wrangler shortcut. it's built in. otherwise i wouldn't have mentioned it.
I just checked. It doesn't work without Node Wrangler enabled, and is listed under Node Wrangler's Hokey List in the add-on tab

@@harryblends losing confidence in your sanity is exactly right! It's a major UX pet peeve tbh
One of The best best videos on the internet ❤
Thanks, but have you seen the one with two kids terrified of the rabbit?
you missed alt while moving a node over a noodle prevents it from auto connecting.
Thank you!
Thank YOU
u are amzaing please dont ever stop
Do we need to have a chat with Gary? Perhaps in a dark alley?
with all this expertise, i think a thumbnail that is more pop culture vibe and clickbaity will drastically increase your views
But I don’t think Moo Deng uses geometry nodes

Checker Deselect might be what you're looking for.
@mechanought3495 unfortunately not because in geometry nodes there is no node like that because it's all procedural

HI MOM
Diffcult to learn
5:53 You got it wrong mate "Ctrl + Shift + D" not Ctrl + Alt + LMB
