Other shortcut resources
The printed Affinity Workbooks offer the same shortcuts as above as tearout inserts at the back of the book. As they’re printed on card, you can place them on a document holder or on your wall for easy reference.
If you prefer the keyboard shortcuts in traditional table format instead, please visit the app help accessible via the app’s Help Menu, then search for keyboard shortcuts.
