Keyboard shortcuts
Everything in the free tools can be used without a mouse. Shortcuts that type a letter or a bracket are ignored while you are typing in a text box, and the buttons say their shortcut in their label or tooltip.
Pixel sprite editor
- Ctrl+Z undoes, Ctrl+Shift+Z or Ctrl+Y redoes.
- Alt+Left, Right, Up, Down shift the whole drawing one pixel; whatever leaves one edge comes back on the other.
- Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V copy, cut and paste the dragged box (turn on Select box first). Paste goes at the top-left of the selected box, or the top-left corner when nothing is selected. Ignored while you type in a box.
- Delete empties the dragged box (turn on Select box first). Ignored while you type in a box.
- I turns on the eyedropper: click a pixel to make its colour the chosen colour. The tool you had comes back after one pick. Ignored while you type in a box.
Tile level editor
Click the level once, or Tab to it, then:
- Arrow keys move the keyboard cursor; Space or Enter uses the chosen tool on that cell.
- Home and End jump to the start and end of the row; Page Up and Page Down jump to the top and bottom of the column.
- Shift+arrow keys extend a selection from the cursor; Ctrl+A selects the whole chosen layer; Escape clears the selection.
- Ctrl+C copies the selection, Ctrl+X cuts it (copies it and empties the cells) and Ctrl+V pastes it at the cursor or pointer.
- Delete empties the selected cells (turn on Select first). Ignored while you type in a box.
- Ctrl+Z undoes and Ctrl+Shift+Z redoes; each says what is now under the cursor.
- [ and ] choose the previous and next tile from anywhere on the page. You can also type a tile number in the tile number box.
Sound variants
- Tab to a variant, then Space or Enter plays it.
- P plays all the shown variants one after another; Escape stops playing.
- In a rename box, Enter keeps the new name and Escape cancels.
