Click a block on your page first. Almost everything here acts on whatever is selected, and the block you have selected is the one with the outline around it.
On a Mac, press Cmd wherever this page says Ctrl.
| Press | And |
|---|---|
| Delete | Removes the selected block. Backspace does the same thing. |
| Ctrl C | Copies the selected block. |
| Ctrl V | Puts the copy just under whatever you have selected. Select something inside a band and it lands inside that band, which is usually where you were looking. |
| Ctrl X | Cuts the block out and holds it, ready to paste somewhere else. |
| Ctrl D | Duplicates the block where it already sits. |
| Ctrl ↑ or ↓ | Moves the block up or down the page. |
| Esc | Lets go of the block, so nothing is selected. |
| Press | And |
|---|---|
| Ctrl Z | Undoes the last change. |
| Ctrl Shift Z | Redoes it. Ctrl Y also works. |
| Ctrl S | Saves now, rather than waiting for the builder to save on its own. |
None of these fire while your cursor is in a text box. Delete in the middle of writing a heading deletes a letter, not the heading. That is on purpose, and it is the part we test hardest, because getting it wrong would mean losing a block to a typo.
If there is a shortcut you keep reaching for and it is not here, tell us at our contact form. This list came from someone doing exactly that.
