Hotkeys

For a detailed list of Vector Paint hotkeys, open the Hotkey Editor, and go to the "Tools --> Vector Paint and Tools --> Shape Editor" category. For more information about the Hotkey Editor, see Hotkey Editor in the Getting Familiar with your Workspace chapter.

Some hotkeys are not listed in the hotkey editor, as they are fixed and cannot be changed. These are:

• Alt for creating lines constrained to multiples of 45 degree angles.
• Alt for constraining shape rotation to multiples of 45 degree angles.
• Alt for creating centered ellipses/rectangles.
• Shift for keeping 1:1 proportions when creating ellipses and rectangles, thus creating circles and squares.
• Ctrl-alt-click in the brush profile editor, to break tangents.
• Shift-click in the brush library to use pictured profile without changing the current brush parameters (size, rate, angle, ...).
• Alt-click on the "Replace" button in the brush library, to replace the current brush without confirmation.
• Alt-click on the "Delete" button in the brush library: delete the selected brush without confirmation.
