Keyboard Shortcuts for Objects

You can use keyboard shortcuts to work with objects that are in the editor.

When you select an object in the editor, you can change the appearance of the object and move the object. When an object is selected, a green border appears around the object. A dotted line also appears around a selected object indicating that the object is in focus. You can focus on an object while allowing other objects to be selected. Move the focus from a selected object to another object when you want to select multiple objects in the editor.
