Move handles

Move handles/stops

mouse dragmove selected handle(s)
Ctrl+mouse dragmove stops in 1/10 range increments
Ctrl+dragging selected intermediate stops moves them snapping to 1/10 steps of the available range
The default nudge distance is 2 px (SVG pixel units, not screen pixels).
Alt+arrowsmove selected handle by 1 pixel
Alt+Shift+arrowsmove selected handle by 10 pixels
If at least one end handle is selected, arrow keys move the end handle to move or resize the gradient line.
If only mid stops are selected, arrow keys move the selected stops along the gradient line.
The actual distance for pixel movements depends on zoom level. Zoom in for finer movement.

Reverse

Reverse

Shift+rreverse gradient definition
This mirrors the stop positions of the current gradient without moving the gradient handles.

Gradient editor

Gradient editor

clickclickopen gradient editor
Double clicking a gradient handle opens the Gradient Editor with that gradient and the clicked handle chosen in the stops list.

Dropper tool

Dropper tool

clickpick fill color
Shift+clickpick stroke color
Ctrl+Ccopy color
This copies the color under cursor to the system clipboard, as text in RRGGBBAA format (8 hex digits).

Text tool

Select/create

Select/create

clickcreate/select a text object
Clicking in an empty space or on a non-text creates a text object; now you can type your text.

Navigate in text

arrowsmove cursor by one character
Ctrl+Left arrow, Ctrl+Right arrowmove cursor by one word

Flowed text (internal frame)

Flowed text (internal frame)

mouse dragcreate flowed text
Clicking and dragging in an empty space or on a non-text creates a flowed text object with internal frame.
mouse dragadjust frame size

Flowed text (external frame)

Flowed text (external frame)

Alt+Wflow text into frame
With a text object and a shape/path selected, this flows text into the shape/path.
Both remain separate objects, but are linked; editing the shape/path causes the text to reflow.

Text on path

Text on path

Shift+Dselect path from text
To find out which path this text is put on, select it and press Shift+D. The path will be selected.

Edit text

Edit text

To type + and - characters, use the main keyboard; keypad + and - are reserved for zoom (unless NumLock is on).
Enterstart a new line or paragraph
Enter in regular text creates new line; in flowed text it creates a new paragraph

Select text

Select text

mouse dragselect text
Left-dragging over a text object selects a text span.
Shift+arrowsselect text by character

Style selection

Style selection

Ctrl+Bmake selection bold
Ctrl+Imake selection italic
Also, you can use the Text&Font or Fill&Stroke dialogs to assign any style to text selection.

Letter spacing

Letter spacing

Alt+>expand line/paragraph by 1 pixel
Shift+Alt+>expand line/paragraph by 10 pixels
Alt+<contract line/paragraph by 1 pixel

Line spacing

Line spacing

Ctrl+Alt+>make the text object taller by 1 pixel
Shift+Ctrl+Alt+>make the text object taller by 10 pixels
Ctrl+Alt+<make the text object shorter by 1 pixel

Kerning and shifting

Kerning and shifting

Alt+arrowsshift characters by 1 pixel
Shift+Alt+arrowsshift characters by 10 pixels
These commands work when editing a regular text object. Kerning does not work in flowed text.
