Journey map keyboard shortcuts

Every keyboard shortcut for the journey map editor, with Mac and Windows keys side by side.

Work faster in the journey map editor with shortcuts for undo, zoom, and the most common card actions. The table below lists the Mac and Windows keys side by side.

Editor keyboard shortcuts

These shortcuts work while you have a journey map open in the editor.

Action	Mac	Windows
Undo	CMD + Z	CTRL + Z
Redo	CMD + Y	CTRL + Y
Zoom in	+	+ or CTRL + "+"
Zoom out	-	- or CTRL + "-"

Shrink card (narrow across columns)	Left arrow	Left arrow
Duplicate card	CMD + D	CTRL + D
View mode / Hand mode (pan the canvas)	Spacebar + arrow keys	Spacebar + arrow keys

Card shortcuts act on the card you have selected. Click a card once to select it, then use the shortcut.

Other editor interactions

A couple of common actions use the mouse rather than a key combination:

• Multi-select cards - Hold Shift and click each card you want to include in a selection. See How to bulk edit cards for what you can do with a multi-card selection.

• Open a card's details - Double-click a card to open its details panel.
