Reference

The lookup half of the documentation. Nothing here teaches; it all answers "what does this do".

  • Keyboard shortcuts


    All 88 actions with their default keys, grouped by what they are for, plus the mouse table and how to rebind.

  • Menus


    Every entry in every menu — title bar, canvas, tab bar and item — and which mode it appears in.

  • Preferences


    All five preference pages, setting by setting.

  • File format


    What a picker actually is: the data node, the .ampkr package, path tokens, and what happens to old files.

  • Updates


    How version checking works, and how to turn it off.
