Keyboard shortcuts in the Controller - euphy/polargraph GitHub Wiki

There are a couple of useful features that have keyboard shortcuts, rather than visible buttons.

• Ctrl+c: Debugging console that shows the raw communications between the controller and the machine, plus any "system.out" traffic from the controller

• Ctrl+arrow keys: move the machine preview around
• Ctrl+pgup or pgdn: zoom the machine preview (change the scaling)

• Ctrl+g: Shows guide lines on or off
• Ctrl+s: Shows Selected Centres - this is a mark where the centre of each selected pixel is. Useful when finely tuning a pixel pattern.
• Ctrl+i: Shows the "information" overlay, which has a handful of interesting bits on it, including the pixel mask colour and an extremely flawed time estimation calculator.

• #: sends a high-priority "lift pen" command to the top of the command queue
• ~: as above, but "drop pen"

• < and >: increase and decrease the "maximum segment length" that controls how long vector art lines get chopped into. The default for this is 2 and the minimum is 1. This isn't something you can see a preview of.
