Let’s go ahead and dive in.
[00:00:33].730] – Liz Stapleton
What are your favorite shortcuts?
[00:00:36].940] – Kate Danielle
So the one I use probably most often is T for text and that pops in a text box and it tries to predict your font. So sometimes I don’t know if I, I may have branding set up, or actually, now it’s pulling in because now that’s the only font in this design. It tries to predict what kind of font you’re going to use or it’ll pull in whatever you’ve set as your brand font.
[00:01:04].780] – Kate Danielle
I use R for a rectangle, C for circle.
[00:01:09].450] – Liz Stapleton
What?! I didn’t know you could do this!
[00:01:12].640] – Kate Danielle
L for line. So those are probably the…
[00:01:17].640] – Liz Stapleton
Is it like command L?
[00:01:20].500] – Kate Danielle
No, you just hit the letters.
[00:01:22].130] – Liz Stapleton
What?!
[00:01:24].520] – Kate Danielle
Yeah. So they’re super.
[00:01:27].610] – Liz Stapleton
I have, like I just from Kara Fidd who was one of our speakers last year I learned the whole trick of like the arrow to like move stuff just a teeny tiny bit. But I didn’t know you can hit the letters because I always have to go on and find like the rectangle or the circle.
[00:01:43].390] – Kate Danielle
Yeah! They save so much time and especially the dropping in a text box.
[00:01:49].060] – Liz Stapleton
Yeah, well, OK. Mind blown a little bit here!
