Select and edit

Select mode changes what is already on the board.

Select

• Click any drawing, or drag on empty space to pull out a selection box.
• Shift + click another drawing to select more than one.
• Cmd/Ctrl + A selects everything.
• Clicking a row in the layer list also selects that object. Hidden objects are not selected.

Once something is selected, drag a handle on the box to scale or rotate it, or drag inside the box to move it.

What you can change in the panel

The current selection shows these settings:

Setting	What it does
Opacity	Sets how transparent the object is
Eraser	When this is off, Eraser mode skips the object
Lock	The object can no longer be moved, rotated, or scaled
Layer	Bring forward, send backward, bring to front, send to back

Cmd/Ctrl + ] and Cmd/Ctrl + [ also change the stacking order of the selection.

Some settings appear only for certain objects:

• Pictures can take filters.
• Text can change font, style, and color.
• Brushes and shapes can change draw color and type.

Layer list

The layer button on the bottom bar lists every object on the current board. From the list you can select an object, show or hide it, or drag it to change the stacking order.

These edits can be undone and redone.
