Here is a list of some of the keyboard sortcuts you currently have at your disposal. These are the defaults. There is a way to customize these, but it is currently not intuitive. Basically you need to edit the accelrc file in your synfig settings directory (don't forget to remove the ";" at the start of a line if you want it to be taken into account).

Keystroke Description
ControlA Select all ducks
⇧ ShiftControlA Select all layers
ControlC Copy currently selected layer(s) and put them in the clipboard
ControlD Deselect all ducks

← Backspace Select the immediate paste canvas parent (if any) of the current selected layer.

Hotkeys Visual Guide

A good way to learn all this shorcuts is putting them in front of your eyes all the time. Because of that, we bring to you a beatiful "Hotkeys Visual Guide" that you can use as a poster.

We offer you two print sizes (both in PDF):

And these are the source files in SVG format:
