Scanifly Hotkeys

Hotkeys simplify and accelerate the design workflow within Scanifly.

 

Each hotkey listed below is currently an action that you can do within the software by clicking a button in the software with your mouse.  By knowing when and where you can use the hotkeys, you can design projects much faster. If at any point you are unsure if there is a hotkey associated with a button you are using, hover over the button and the button description will show the hotkey if it exists.
