Keyboard Shortcuts

The Scenery editor is built for Mac and iPad with a hardware keyboard – that's where these shortcuts apply. iPhone and Apple Vision Pro are mainly for viewing experiences. On Mac, the editor commands also live in the menu bar, so you can always rediscover them there.

Modifier keys: ⌘ Command, ⇧ Shift, ⌥ Option, ⎋ Escape, ↩ Return, ⌫ Delete.
