CTRL + V: Paste

After creating a copy of your object, click on the page where you want your copy to appear, then hold down the Control Key (CTRL) along with the (V) key to paste your copy.

CTRL + (+): Zoom In

To zoom in to get a closer view of the content on your page try this keyboard shortcut option. Hold down the Control Key (CTRL) and press the key with the Plus (+) symbol on it. You can zoom in up to 300% on your page. (Note: For Mac Users, first click on any object on your page before using this keyboard shortcut.)

CTRL + (-): Zoom Out

To zoom out to view the full page use this keyboard shortcut. Hold down the Control Key (CTRL) and press the Minus (-) symbol on your keyboard. The smallest reduction size you can make your page is 20%. (Note: For Mac Users, first click on any object on your page before using this keyboard shortcut.)

Delete/Backspace

Deleting an object from your page is easy using this keyboard shortcut, instead of using the trash can icon in the top toolbar. Click to select an object that you wish to discard on your page and either press the Delete or Backspace key.

Arrow Keys

Use your arrow keys to nudge the contents on your page when you want to make small edits. You can move your objects either up, down, left or right for more advanced editing options if the option to click and drag the object is too drastic.
