Keyboard Shortcuts
Every shortcut below appears in the app itself: click Shortcuts in the toolbar (next to Credentials and Settings), or press ? anywhere on the canvas, to open the same list. Three rows are exceptions to that. Two note a second working key combo the in-app list leaves out — Backspace for Delete, already documented in Getting Started, and Ctrl+Shift+Z for Redo, confirmed directly against InputHandler.ts. The third, Ctrl+Shift+C for Chat, is missing from the in-app list altogether, not just a second combo for an action already there — confirmed directly against toolbar.ts. Everything else here matches the in-app list exactly.
