New features alert: Shortcuts

In order to make your work more efficient we released a few new shortcuts -

  1. Design multi selected text elements. From now on the design panel for text elements is available for a few multi selected text components.

  1. Drag in a straight line. In order to keep same axis while dragging, and the alignment that you worked on so hard, use the keyboard shortcut Shift while dragging.

  2. Resize from center . To keep the position and the center of elements when resizing, use the keyboard shortcut Option (Alt for PC) while resizing.

  1. Hide/Unhide panels . To clear the builder from all the open panels at once, use the keyboard shortcut CMD + . (Press CMD together with period) to close and reopen panels.

  1. Lastly, ±10 jumps in numeric inputs. For those who work heavily with the Inspector to update size and position values, use the keyboard shortcut Shift + up/down arrows to jump ±10 each time.

Wow, I am always greatly pleased with your wonderful updates!
Thank you so much.

I have also confirmed that the ability to “Group” from the contextual menu has been removed and deprecated.
However, I have also confirmed that the ⌘+G shortcuts remain in effect.

Love those, I really like small productivity improvement. they compound into really big gains

One I would like to see is the possibility to execute computation directly into unit field

enter 10+5 and 15 is entered as value (it should support multiple terms 10+4+23) and operation +/-*

Good job Wix
