Keyboard shortcuts in Theme Studio
Undo, delete, nudge, copy and paste, and zoom from the keyboard while you design.
On a Mac, use Cmd wherever this says Ctrl, and Option wherever it says Alt.
- Ctrl + Z: undo. Ctrl + Shift + Z or Ctrl + Y: redo.
- Delete or Backspace: delete what's selected.
- Enter or F2: start typing in the selected text.
- Esc: stop typing, clear the selection, or cancel something you were about to place.
- Arrow keys: nudge what's selected. Hold Shift for bigger steps.
- Tab and Shift + Tab with something selected: select the next or the previous row in Layers.
- Alt + ↑ or Alt + ↓ after you click a row in Layers: move that row up or down the list.
- ← and → with nothing selected: move between Insert, Properties, Layers and Theme.
- Ctrl + C, Ctrl + X and Ctrl + V: copy, cut and paste.
- Ctrl + + and Ctrl + -: zoom in and out. Ctrl + 0: back to 100%.
- Hold Space and drag: move around the page.
- Shift + click: select more than one item. Shift + drag: select everything inside a box.
Good to know
While you're typing in a table, the arrow keys move between cells instead, and Delete clears the selected cells' text.
