Modifier Key Philosophy
Gridshift uses a consistent modifier hierarchy throughout the application. Once you learn these patterns, you can predict how shortcuts work across different contexts.
| Modifier | Purpose |
|---|
| (none) | Navigation between objects |
| ⇧ Shift | Multi-selection (add to selection) |
| ⌘ Cmd | Cursor/Marquee mode |
| ⌘⇧ | Extend Marquee selection |
| ⌘⌃ | Move objects (clips, notes, points) |
| ⌘⌃⇧ | Timestretch objects |
| ⌥ Option | Zoom & fine adjustments |
Option = Fine ModeWhen combined with other modifiers, Option makes movements finer (1/8 grid instead of full grid). This works for cursor movement, marquee extension, and object positioning.
