Keyboard shortcuts

Every keyboard shortcut in the template editor for Windows, Linux and Mac, from undo and select all to moving layers, switching pages and cropping.

These shortcuts work in the template editor. On a Mac, use Cmd where Windows and Linux use Ctrl.

The shortcuts don’t work while you type in a field or edit text on the canvas, so your typing never moves or deletes a layer by mistake. There, Ctrl + Z undoes your typing instead. The shortcuts that select, move or delete layers also don’t work while you preview.
