Intro

Proto.io on Mac runs in the browser and uses Command (⌘) as its modifier. Screen management, layer operations, and prototype navigation are the primary keyboard shortcut contexts.

Mac-specific shortcut notes

Screen navigation. Moving between screens in the prototype project using keyboard shortcuts.

Layer management. Cmd+G to group; Cmd+Shift+G to ungroup. Cmd+D to duplicate. Cmd+[ / Cmd+] for stacking order.

Canvas navigation. Zoom and pan controls.

Prototype preview. Entering and exiting the interactive preview mode for testing the prototype.

Browser shortcut conflicts. As with other browser-based tools on Mac, Cmd+W closes the browser tab.
