The following shortcuts can be used when working on the drawing area:
Mouse
- Left mouse button:
- You can select objects one by one or draw a selection frame. Selected objects can be moved by holding down the left mouse button. The objects will always remain in a grid.
- Selected objects can also be quickly removed from the drawing using the “Del” key.
- Mouse wheel:
- Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out of the area
- Centre / right mouse button
- By holding down the centre or right mouse button, you can move the zoomed-in drawing area to other places in the drawing.
- Double-click
- Double-click to open the editing window for objects such as symbols, general devices, texts and frames.
Trackpad
Using a trackpad is similar to using a mouse:
- Single finger
- This can be used to select objects. By holding down your finger, you can also draw a selection frame or move the selected objects.
- Two fingers – “pinch gesture”
- Zooming in and out of the drawing area is triggered by moving one finger apart (or towards each other) while holding down two fingers.
- Two fingers – “drag gesture”
- If you press the trackpad with two fingers and then move them in parallel, the zoomed-in drawing area moves.
