Keyboard Shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts:
- CTRL C - copy highlighted element; hold down shift key to copy multiple elements.
- CTRL V - paste copied element.
- CTRL A - copy every single element on the page. Good when you want to group everything on the page.
- CTRL X - cut an element from one place and put it in another.
- CTRL Z - undo your last action.

ARROW key shortcuts: pressing on the left, up , down, or right arrow keys will move you selected element one pixel at a time allowing precise adjustments.

CTRL key shortcuts: Pressing the CTRL key at the same time as one of the arrow keys allows you to move your selected elements either left, up, down, or right by one grid increment. Especially helpful in a text box allowing you to skip a word left, up, down, or right.

SHIFT key shortcuts: pressing the shift key at the same time as one of the arrow keys allows you to change the size of your selected element:
- shift left - shrink the width of selected element by one pixel.
- shift up - shrink the height of selected element by one pixel.
- shift down - increase the height...
- shift right - increase the width...

CTRL/SHIFT/ARROW key shortcuts allows you to change the size of selected element by one grid giving you some pretty cool effects. Play with these to see what you can do!
