Selecting and editing

Click a shape to select it. Its settings appear in the panel, and a dashed box with a square handle appears in the sketch.

Move, resize and rotate

Move: drag the shape, or use the arrow keys (1 mm; Shift for 10 mm, Alt for 0.1 mm). Type exact numbers in Position.
Resize: drag the square corner handle, or type the size in the panel.
Rotate: [ and ] turn by 15° (hold Shift for 1°), or type the angle in Rotation. On a touchscreen, drag the round knob above the shape.
In 3D: drag a part to slide it on the bed; Shift+drag raises or lowers it.

The right-click menu

Right-click a shape, in the sketch or the 3D view, for Edit settings, Duplicate, Rotate 90°, Flip, Bring to front, Send to back, Lock, Hide and Delete. Right-click empty space for Select all, Fit to view, Import image and Clear. A right-drag still pans the view.

Several shapes at once

Shift+click to add shapes, or drag a box around them on empty space. Ctrl+A selects everything. On a phone, press and hold a shape, or tap Several, then tap the others.

Three shapes selected with the Align buttons in the right-click menu — With several shapes selected, the menu adds Group and the Align buttons.

Align left, center, right, back, middle or front, and Center on bed or Drop to bed (in the panel under Align & arrange).
Group (Ctrl+G) so they select and move together; Ungroup with Ctrl+Shift+G.
Scale them together by dragging the corner handle of the selection (Alt scales from the center).

Duplicate and patterns

Ctrl+D makes a copy 10 mm away. Move or rotate the copy, press Ctrl+D again and the same step repeats, which is a quick way to make rows, stairs and circles of parts. For exact layouts, open Pattern in the panel: In a row with spacing, or Around a point with a sweep angle and copies that face the center.

On a phone

Tap a shape and a toolbar appears above it: Delete, Copy, Rotate (90°), Flip, Front, Back, Several and Edit (opens its settings). Drag the round knob to turn it freely; it settles on 15° steps. Pinch to zoom, drag empty space to move the view.

Lock, hide, undo

Lock (Ctrl+Shift+L) stops a shape from moving by accident. Hide (Ctrl+Shift+H) takes it out of the model until you show it again.
Undo Ctrl+Z and Redo Ctrl+Y go back up to 80 steps. Deleting or clearing shows an Undo button in the message too.
