Shortcuts

Every keyboard shortcut in Yardmaster. Press a key to see what it does.

These are the defaults. You can change any of them in Yardmaster's Settings, on the Keyboard Shortcuts page.

Press a key on your keyboard, or click one above, to see what it does. Hold Command, Option or ShiftCtrl, Alt or Shift (or click them) to try a combination. Click the keyboard first to keep keys this page also uses, such as Command KCtrl K for search, on the map.
