Shortcuts for painting
You can use the following shortcuts while you’re using a Paint tool:
- To undo your most recent action, press Esc or ~ (Tilde).
- To go back to a card you’ve visited, press Command-Esc or Command-~ (Command-Tilde).
- To see just the card picture, close the Message box if it’s visible, and press Option-D.
- To see all areas of the card or background picture that are opaque, close the Message box if it’s visible, and press Option-O. (Opaque graphics require more room than transparent graphics.)
- To show and hide the Patterns palette, press Tab.
- To show and hide the Tools palette, press Option-Tab.
- To peel off a copy of a graphic, select it and Option-drag. The copy remains in the same layer (card or background) as the original.
- The Brush and the Spray tools will erase if you hold down the Command key while using them.
