cluelessn00b Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Not sure what I'm searching wrong, but can't figure this out. I'd like to do the following: 1. Shortcut key to zoom out the artboard and center it to screen. Sometimes I move around in the artboard and would like to come back to a centered position, but can't figure out the shortcut to do it. 2. Shortcut key to zoon a selected object to the center of the screen. Is that possible? Let's say I have ten layers, and I select one that's to the left of the artboard. Some shortcut key that would then bring the objects in that selected layer to the center of my view (i.e., the shortcuts shifts the entire artboard to the right, not actually move anything inside relative to the board) 3. And if anyone knows... is there a way to move the artboard using the Wacom tablet / Pen combo? I have to drag the horizontal/vertical scrollbars but surely there's a way to grab the board and move it (like how I can do it on the mouse by click and drag) Thank you! Quote

Select the artboard in the Layers panel and move as required (Works on my Wacom) cluelessn00b 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.
cluelessn00b Posted April 21, 2023 Author Posted April 21, 2023 @carl123 Awesome! Thank you. I feel really dumb but I'll console myself that I'm still figuring out all the tools. The zoom options are great. Quote
Olli O Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 the default behaviour of ctrl+1 should zoom to 100% and center to selected Element. If nothing is selected it should center the artboard (top-center) Quote

Be aware that moving Artboards around can result in them being no longer pixel perfect for x y co-ordinates which may result in JPEG, PNG, TIFF (raster files) being a pixel larger on export. cluelessn00b 1 Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.
