# Keyboard shortcuts

Every shortcut in the editor's Keyboard shortcuts list, plus undo, redo, copy, paste and delete.

**Use this when:** you need the key for an editor action, or want to explain one.

**Don't use this for:** what an action does. Read the Modelling pages for that.

Press `Shift + ?` in a project to open the `Keyboard shortcuts` list. On a Mac, `⌘` replaces `Ctrl` and `⌥` replaces `Alt`.

Womp saves your project automatically. There is no save shortcut.

## Use instead

- **Wrong move:** pressing `Shift + "+"` for `Stain`. **Why:** the `Stain` shortcut is `Alt/⌥ + Shift + "+"`. **Right move:** hold `Alt/⌥` and `Shift`, then press `+`.
- **Wrong move:** telling a user to press `⌘/Ctrl + S` to save. **Why:** Womp saves automatically and has no save shortcut. **Right move:** tell them their work is already saved.
- **Wrong move:** quoting a key to switch between move, rotate and scale. **Why:** all handles are on the object at the same time, so there is no mode key. **Right move:** tell them to drag the handle they need.
