Keyboard Shortcuts

Most editor shortcuts are customizable from Settings > Keybinds. The defaults below match a fresh install.

Canvas controls

These are gesture-based and not user-rebindable.

Shortcut Action
Ctrl + mouse wheel Zoom in or out
Ctrl + drag Pan the canvas
Pinch on trackpad Pinch-zoom

Tool switching

Default Action
V Switch to the Select tool
M Switch to the Block tool (text-block creation)
B Switch to the Brush tool
E Switch to the Eraser tool
R Switch to the Repair Brush tool

Brush size

Default Action
] Increase brush size (clamped at 128)
[ Decrease brush size (clamped at 8)

History and selection

Default Action
Ctrl + Z (Cmd + Z on macOS) Undo
Ctrl + Shift + Z (Cmd + Shift + Z on macOS) Redo
Ctrl + Y Redo (legacy fallback, not rebindable)
Ctrl + A (Cmd + A on macOS) Select all text blocks on the current page

Undo and redo intentionally fire even while typing in a text field — the scene history takes precedence over the browser's native text-undo. Ctrl + A only fires outside text fields, so the native "select all text" behaviour still works inside textareas and inputs.

Customizing shortcuts

Open Settings > Keybinds to rebind any of the rebindable shortcuts above. Conflicts are highlighted, and you can reset back to defaults from the same screen.

Tool-switch and brush-size shortcuts only fire when the keyboard focus is outside an editable text field, so they will not interrupt typing in the OCR or translation panels.
