Inside Webflow, I’m known as the guy  with the most helpful keyboard shortcuts.

Sara: Grímur, I need to paste this text without formatting.

Grímur: Command +Option + Shift + V

Nelson: Screenshot on Mac?

Grímur: Command + Shift + 4? Click and drag the boundary.

Nelson: Oh, that’s it?

Grímur: Of course not. You can also hold Option while dragging  to have its size from the center. Or hold Shift to keep the aspect ratio.

Nelson: Oooooooh!

Grímur: I got shortcuts for days. Command + Control + Spacebar? Emoji selection.

Command + Option + Shift + Thunderbolt + Sigma?

Two keyboards.

Now you might be thinking “Grímur, why all the Mac stuff? What about Windows?”

Oh, I got Windows.

Select a file? Shift + Delete. Hit Enter.

And it skips the Recycle Bin. I know. Dangerous.

Sara: Is that all?

Grímur: No. In Webflow, Command Shift P? Boom. Preview mode. 

Command Shift P again? Out of preview mode.

Command + Return? I’m in the Selector field.

Command + E? Quick find. I can just type whatever in, press return, it’s there.

Option Drag? I just duplicated the element.

1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 4, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3 

What I'm doing? I’m just switching between breakpoints.

Command + Shift + S, save 

a backup point for my site.

I + D + D + Q + D? Hmm. Let’s go and check our Fonts annnnnnd…yep. Comic Sans now available.

The point is: I’m optimizing my 2022 with keyboard shortcuts that are changing 

my life. What are your favorite shortcuts?

I would love to hear them.

I mean... I left...

almost all of my shortcuts...

Like all of my favorite shortcuts in there. But.

I would love to hear what yours are

And. Umm.

You know. You saw the keyboards that I dropped earlier.

They are...

fake.

So.

They were not harmed.

Just kidding.

Anyways. Umm.

That's only a portion of my favorite shortcuts.

Because

I have thousands

Like I said in the beginning.

I'm know as the keyboard shortcut...

Okay. I'm not know as the keyboard shortcut...

I'm known as the keyboard shortcut person in Webflow

And that's really why I'm here

to teach you all these shortcuts. Because I know

thousands of them.

Thousands. So.

And I want more. So please...

Please post your favorites.

Thank you.

Another one.
