Keystroke to get 'arrow' when in 'text' mode?


Recommended Posts

My first post with Affinity Photo.

 

I am an instant fan.  Brilliant app.

 

I'm looking for a set of keyboard shortcuts, which I'm sure I'll find.  But in the meanwhile, I notice that when I'm in Text mode ... and what to go quickly to the 'Arrow' mode ... the 'V' keystroke doesn't work (of course), it just makes a 'V' in my text box.  Is there a way to go straight from Text mode to Arrow mode with a keystroke (perhaps with a qualifier)?

 

All ears,

 

Ben

Hi Ben,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :

Depending on the state of the Text tool you may have to press ESC once or twice to deselect the text and get back to the text frame to then press V to change to the Move Tool.

If you need to move the text frame, there's no need to change tools, just mouse over the frame box until the cursor change to the cross arrows icon and drag the frame.
