Intro

Zeplin on Mac uses Command (⌘) as its modifier. The desktop app provides the full Zeplin feature set, screen navigation, layer inspection, styleguide, connected components, and annotation tools.

Mac-specific shortcut notes

Screen navigation. Moving through screens in a project by keyboard, next/previous screen shortcuts and jumping within the screen list.

Layer inspection. Selecting individual layers on a screen. Cycling between layers to review their properties. The inspector updates to show dimensions, position, colors, fonts, shadows, and spacing.

Code output. Switching between code snippet languages (CSS, Swift, Kotlin, XML, and others). Copying the full code block or a specific property value to the clipboard.

Styleguide navigation. Moving through the project styleguide, color palettes, text styles, components, and spacing rules.

Comments. Entering comment mode, adding a comment to a specific screen location, and navigating between existing comments.

Zoom. Cmd++ / Cmd+- to zoom. Cmd+1 or equivalent to fit the screen to the window.
