Hi,

Sometimes, when the new VFB is opened, 3Ds Max shortcuts don't work.

for example, Ctrl+C for new camera or Ctrl+V for cloning.

Sometimes this happens to me also (still on Corona 11) and for my case it's a max thing. If you have the Layer Manager open, try going to Select (upper-left) and toggle Select children, which is also Ctrl+C.

See if that fixes it for you.

Ctrl+C is a valid shortcut in the old VFB. It copies the image into clipboard, so that you can paste it into Photoshop or other apps.
I thought that Ctrl+V would be cloning to the 3ds Max VFB, but I couldn't get it working.

I tried hitting Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V (and some other keys) with the new VFB open but they always triggered the 3ds Max actions. Which exact version of 3ds Max are you using?

3Ds Max 2024, Corona 12 .

This happened after installing the new version of Corona Renderer.

3ds max shortcuts were disabled when VFB was open (to make the VFB shortcuts work, which were not as crucial as 3ds Max shortcuts) in RC stage, but got enabled back for the final release.
In your other post (CoronaColorCorrect) I saw you were using RC1, not the final release. If this is still the case, please update to the official Corona 12.

Everything works as expected with Corona 12, just tested with 3ds Max 2024 and 2025.
