You can select a collection of shapes by pressing and holding the left mouse button and dragging a rectangle around the things to select, from left to right, like this: To clear the current selection, left click an empty space in the view, or press the Esc key. Other controls in LightBurn may activate, depending on what you've selected.
The size and position of your selection is shown in the Numeric Edits toolbar. The edit handles for resizing, positioning, or rotating the selection appear. The selected shape is drawn with an animated pattern instead of solid lines. The simplest is to point the mouse at the outline of a shape and click it with the left mouse button.Ī few things happen when a shape is selected: There are multiple ways to select things in the edit window (workspace). The 4th button is Frame Selection - Clicking this will zoom the view to focus on whatever is currently selected, or all the shapes in your project if you haven't selected anything. You can also press the - and + keys in the upper-right of your keyboard for this, or use the mouse wheel. Clicking them will zoom in or out of the center of the view. The next two buttons are Zoom in and Zoom out. The second button is Zoom to Page - clicking this will reset the view in the workspace to frame the entire work area, which is the view that LightBurn starts with. The Space bar acts as a shortcut for the Pan control. You'll see the mouse cursor change to a hand, like this: When the hand cursor is visible, you can drag the view around by pressing the left mouse button and moving the mouse. Click that to enter Pan mode, to drag the view. The first button, the four arrows, is the Pan control. There are buttons on the main toolbar for panning and zooming too: If you don't have a middle mouse button, you can hold the Space bar on your keyboard down instead - you'll see the mouse cursor change to a hand, and then you can grab and drag the view with the left mouse button. 
To pan the view, sliding the window around, press and hold the middle mouse button and move the mouse. You can also use the - and + keys in the upper-right of the keyboard to zoom. If you have a touch-pad (like a Mac) using a two-finger swipe up or down does the same thing.
Scrolling the mouse wheel will zoom in or out from the location of the mouse - you can simply point at something with the mouse and scroll the mouse wheel to zoom in on that point. The Edit Window, the center of the main display, can be moved around and zoomed with the mouse to help you focus on different parts of your design. Numeric Edits - size, position, orientation
