Shortcuts

The Shortcuts are specific events that can be triggered by using a specific combination of keys (also called shortcut).

Shortcuts cannot be invoked in case an input has the focus. For example, if we are typing something into a text input, and we try to apply a shortcut, only the browser will try to resolve it.

Here's explained what are the available shortcuts and how they can be triggered.

Copy

The Copy shortcut can be used to copy all the elements that are currently selected. The copied elements will be saved within the canvas clipboard. After copying one or more shapes, the Status Bar will write the number of elements that have been copied.

For Mac OS users, this shortcut can be triggered by using the CMD + C (⌘C) combination from the keyboard. For other operating systems, the shortcut to use is CTRL + C (⌃C).

Paste

The Paste shortcut can be used to paste all the elements that are currently stored within the clipboard. After pasting one or more shapes, the Status Bar will write the number of elements that have been pasted. In case the clipboard is empty, the shortcut won't do anything.

Pasting the elements won't flush the current clipboard. This means that it is possible to paste the same elements multiple times.

For Mac OS users, this shortcut can be triggered by using the CMD + V (⌘V) combination from the keyboard. For other operating systems, the shortcut to use is CTRL + V (⌃V).

Undo

The Undo shortcut is used to undo the last action made. This shortcut is able to undo almost all the actions that can be made within the canvas.

  • Add - by undoing this action, the last added element(s) will be removed.
  • Remove - by undoing this action, the last removed element(s) will be restored.
  • Move - by undoing this action, the last moved elements(s) will be brought back to their original position.
  • Resize - by undoing this action, the size of the last resized elements(s) will be restored.
  • Rotate - by undoing this action, the rotation of the last rotated elements(s) will be restored.
  • State - by undoing this action, the configuration (details, appearance, etc...) of the last changed elements(s) will be restored to the previous one.

The system is able to undo up to 50 previous actions. This means that after sequentially triggering this shortcut 50 times, it won't be possible to undo anything else.

For Mac OS users, this shortcut can be triggered by using the CMD + Z (⌘Z) combination from the keyboard. For other operating systems, the shortcut to use is CTRL + Z (⌃Z).

Redo

The Redo shortcut is used to restore the last undo action(s). Every time the system undoes an action, this one will be pushed within the REDO stack, so that it could be restored in any time.

The REDO stack is automatically flushed every time a new action is made.

For Mac OS users, this shortcut can be triggered by using the CMD + SHIFT + Z (⌘⇧Z) combination from the keyboard. For other operating systems, the shortcut to use is CTRL + Y (⌃Y).

Remove

The Remove shortcut can be used to remove quickly all the selected elements.

This shortcut can be triggered by pressing BACKSPACE (⌫) from the keyboard.

Select All

The Select All shortcut is used to select all the existing shapes.

For Mac OS users, this shortcut can be triggered by using the CMD + A (⌘A) combination from the keyboard. For other operating systems, the shortcut to use is CTRL + A (⌃A).
