Riggr

Essential shortcuts

Every Riggr shortcut, exactly as the app responds.

Essential shortcuts

Riggr is built for the keyboard. On macOS, swap Ctrl for in every shortcut below. The full list also lives in Settings → Shortcuts.

Shortcut Action
Ctrl K Quick search to insert a node (node palette)
Ctrl Shift P Command Palette — every app command
Ctrl P File Picker — pick a file, it becomes a node

On Home, Ctrl K becomes workspace search.

Work with nodes

Shortcut Action
Ctrl D Duplicate selection
Ctrl G Wrap selection in a Group (or dissolve the selected group)
Delete / Backspace Remove nodes or connections (with confirmation)
Ctrl ` Maximize active node / return to canvas
Ctrl ; Select the node closest to the viewport center
Ctrl Space Zoom to selected node (fit-to-viewport)
Ctrl Alt + arrow Jump to the neighbor node in that direction

Arrange the canvas

Shortcut Action
Ctrl O Align selection in a row (horizontal)
Ctrl V Align selection in a column (vertical)

Zoom

Shortcut Action
Ctrl 0 Reset (fit view)
Ctrl + Zoom in
Ctrl − Zoom out
Ctrl + scroll Smooth zoom

Pan the camera

Shortcut Action
W A S D Move camera (no modifier)
Arrows Move camera (alternative)
Shift + arrows / WASD Fast pan (240px instead of 120px)
Right-click + drag Free pan
Space + drag Free pan (alternative)

Save and open

Shortcut Action
Ctrl S Save now (autosave runs in the background too)
Ctrl N New workspace

Bookmarks

No direct shortcut — use the Command Palette:

  • Ctrl Shift PSave viewport as bookmark → give it a name.
  • Ctrl Shift PGo to: → jumps there.

Don't get tripped up

  • Ctrl V is align as a column, not paste. Pasting text/code works inside the relevant node.
  • Ctrl Z and Ctrl Shift Z are listed but undo/redo aren't implemented yet — autosave runs hard so real loss is rare, but there's no "undo last action".

When you forget

Ctrl Shift P opens the Command Palette. Almost everything Riggr does is in there, with the matching shortcut next to it.
