Excalidraw: Keyboard shortcuts for shapes

Created on 2 Jan 2020  路  4Comments  路  Source: excalidraw/excalidraw

Great project! It'd be nice to have keyboard shortcuts so that you don't have to move your mouse up and down the whole time. I'd propose: R for rectangle, O for oval, A for arrow, T for text. This should also feel familiar to people coming from Sketch as it's the same, except for A (A is for Artboard in Sketch, there's no shortcut for creating an arrow).

Agreed! Pull request would be welcome!

Also, we could underline the letter like Windows 95 :)

I didn鈥檛 think about artboards but that could be useful
