# Canvas Shortcuts

## View

- Drag empty canvas space to pan.
- Use the mouse wheel or zoom slider to zoom.
- Use Reset View to restore the default zoom and centered position.

## Selection

- `Ctrl / Cmd` + drag: box-select multiple nodes.
- `Shift / Ctrl / Cmd` + click: add or remove a node from the selection.
- `Ctrl / Cmd` + `A`: select all nodes.
- `Esc`: clear the selection and close the active overlay.

## Editing

- `Ctrl / Cmd` + `C`: copy selected nodes.
- `Ctrl / Cmd` + `V`: paste nodes.
- `Delete / Backspace`: delete selected nodes or edges.
- `Ctrl / Cmd` + `Z`: undo.
- `Ctrl / Cmd` + `Shift` + `Z`, or `Ctrl / Cmd` + `Y`: redo.

Drag image files onto the canvas to upload them, or insert saved items from My Assets. Undo and redo cover nodes, edges, the viewport, background mode, and assistant sessions; they do not cover the project name, account state, global AI settings, or the My Assets library.
