Keyboard reference
PhotoCraft keyboard shortcuts: learn from your version
Start with a small reference sourced from version-tagged code, then confirm the keys shown by your installed app. This is a practical selection of defaults, not a complete tested binding inventory.
Read the displayed command keys
Open the relevant menu and look beside a command for its key combination. Record what the installed version displays on your platform. A remembered Photoshop binding is a candidate to check, not proof of PhotoCraft behaviour.
On macOS, symbols may indicate Command, Shift and Option; other platforms commonly use Ctrl and Alt. Do not automatically swap modifiers without checking the app. Include the operating system, keyboard layout and PhotoCraft version in your reference.
Common defaults in the v0.7.0 source
| Command | macOS default | Windows / Linux default |
|---|---|---|
| Open | ⌘ O | Ctrl+O |
| Save | ⌘ S | Ctrl+S |
| Save As | ⌘ Shift S | Ctrl+Shift+S |
| Undo | ⌘ Z | Ctrl+Z |
| Redo | ⌘ Shift Z | Ctrl+Shift+Z |
| Select All | ⌘ A | Ctrl+A |
| Deselect | ⌘ D | Ctrl+D |
| Free Transform | ⌘ T | Ctrl+T |
These are documented source defaults, not results of a hands-on test. The project maps its Cmd modifier to Command on macOS and Ctrl elsewhere. Bindings can be overridden in Edit → Keyboard Shortcuts; browser or operating-system shortcuts may also affect what reaches the app.
Try each action once from its menu, then with its displayed keys on a throwaway document. Version-tagged sources: menu bindings (opens a new tab), editing commands (opens a new tab) and shortcut routing (opens a new tab).
Check focus before blaming a shortcut
Typing in a text layer, number field or dialog changes where keystrokes go. Finish that input before retrying an application command. Also check the active tool and selected layer; a command can be unavailable because its prerequisites are absent.
If the menu command works but its displayed keys do not, record the focus state and keyboard layout. Search official issues (opens a new tab) before reporting a reproducible problem.
For active-tool behaviour, continue to tool shortcuts and modifier keys. Recheck your reference after updating instead of assuming all bindings remain fixed.
