Intro

Miro on Windows uses Ctrl for modifier-based shortcuts. Single-key tool shortcuts (S, R, T, C, F) work without any modifier, the same as on Mac. The shortcut set is identical to Mac with the modifier swapped.

Windows-specific shortcut notes

Single-key tool activation. S (sticky note), R (shape), T (text), C (connector), F (frame), V (select), bare key presses, no Ctrl modifier needed. These work the same on Windows as on Mac.

Canvas navigation. Ctrl+1 fits the board to the screen. Ctrl++ / Ctrl+- zoom in and out. Space+drag pans the canvas.

Frame navigation. Moving between frames in presentation or review mode uses arrow-based shortcuts covered in the table.

Grouping and arrangement. Ctrl+G groups selected elements; Ctrl+Shift+G ungroups. Ctrl+[ and Ctrl+] adjust stacking order.

Selection. Ctrl+A selects all. Tab moves selection to the next element.
