Terminating a running project

Troubleshooting General Help
1

I am doing the beginner tutorials. Can someone tell me the best way to terminate a running project. When a test project starts running, I can only use my mouse to move around the object within the project window. The program will continue looping unless I 'hit it with a hammer'. Is there something like (in Blender) where you use particular keyboard keys to work? If yes, where can I find this information?



Thanks in advance

Escape will exit the program

'N' will display normals

'B' will display bounding volumes

'R' will dump memory

'F1 - F3' will do something but I forgot what

'L' will toggle lighting



EDIT:



'T' will show wires.

'P' will pause;

'+' will update the scenegraph one unit

'C' will turn out your camera



EDIT 2:



Oh yeah. Camera controls:

W: forward

S: back

A: left

D: right

Q: up

E: down

Thanks for your reply and the extra information. I was using Escape but thought there might be other better ways to do it. Thanks.

No, no better way to do it. If you hit escape the program will clean up it's own resources and shut-down in the safest manner.
