Keyboard Shortcuts

As you get familiar with the Kuula editor, you may be looking for ways to increase your productivity.

The Kuula virtual tour editor provides a number of keyboard shortcuts to speed up editing hotspots and other types of addons, such as text labels and inline images.

Below is a complete list of shortcuts available in the editor and in the viewer. The term addons refer to any type of element added to the post such as image, text label or hotspot.
