Keyboard shortcuts

Every keyboard shortcut exposed in the editor. Mac and Windows variants listed where they differ.

The shortcuts below mirror the in-app shortcuts panel exactly. Mac modifiers are listed first; Windows uses Ctrl where macOS uses .

In-app Keyboard Shortcuts panel listing the canonical commands - Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Frame Selected, Toggle gizmo type, camera controls, and more

Open the in-app shortcuts panel directly with the help icon in the top-right of the editor. The panel mirrors this page; the page is the lookup-friendly reference.

Limits and known issues

  • Shortcuts are not customizable. Remapping isn't exposed in the UI; the keybindings are fixed.

  • Some shortcuts may overlap with browser defaults. Cmd+W will close the tab; Cmd+R will reload. The product avoids those, but some browsers and OS combinations have edge cases.

  • Game controller bindings for camera control in Compose mode live on the Camera controls page rather than here.
