Hi,
Q : Viewport operation
How can I change viewport angle ,when I select and modify geometry.
I could 2step method. push s-key and modify geometry then push Esc-key and thumble.
I'd like to 1step operation like a maya style.
Q: pivot operation
I'd like to move the selected polygon mesh in the direction of the normal.

Strongly advice you to see *all video tutorials from Tutorials section and Apprentice Blog section on this site… you will give yourself some peace.
Q1: Press Space bar to break temporary any viewport tool.
Q2: You move pivot with the same key as in Maya -> ‘ (check out Maya transition Guide" in Houdini’s Introductory (menu Help -> Start Here).
I don't think you can align pivot to prim's normal in EditSOP. This is doable via PeakSOP though. I could be wrong I'm not a modeling monkey, sorry.
EDIT: EditSOP has a second mode (see its tabs), called Peak. Switch to this tab and your handle will align to normal of selection.

This sounds like an OS desktop setting. Are you on windows or linux?
You'll have to check your desktop settings and re-assign you Alt key there.

You currently can not swap the space bar key for the alt key.
