Editor tools
Every tool, panel, and shortcut when working on a course sketch.
The toolbar controls how you draw and edit on the canvas. Pick a tool, click or drag on the arena, and use the panels for details.
Drawing tools
Select
Select and move objects on the sketch. Nudge a selection with the arrow keys (hold Shift for a larger step).
Symbol
Stamp fences and other symbols from the library. Pick a symbol in the panel and click the canvas to place it.
Text
Add text labels. Double-click or press Enter on selected text to edit.
Freehand
Draw freehand lines and shapes.
Ride path
Draw the track between fences. Length and times tie into class settings and can be used for time-allowed calculations.
Shapes
Open the shapes menu and choose:
- Rectangle
- Rounded rectangle
- Ellipse
- Line
- Arrow
Drag on the canvas to create the shape.
Image
Insert an image file onto the sketch (for example a logo or background detail).
Toolbar panels
These open settings panels instead of drawing directly:
Arena
Arena dimensions, shape, and meter grid. This is where you set the to-scale surface.
Class
Class details: rulebook, height, judging table, tempo, and time allowed. Place class info on the sketch when you need it visible.
Competitions
Manage the day’s classes. Available on base sketches — use when several classes share the same layout.
Settings
Sketch and document settings.
Display
What is shown on the canvas (guides, layers, and similar display options).
Panels and rulebook
- Show/hide left panel and right panel — free up canvas space.
- Rulebook issues — when rulebook warnings exist, a shortcut appears in the toolbar.
Edit
Via the Edit menu or shortcuts:
| Action | Shortcut |

| Undo | ⌘/Ctrl+Z |
| Redo | ⌘/Ctrl+Shift+Z or ⌘/Ctrl+Y |

Navigate the canvas
- Pan — hold Space and drag (or use middle mouse / trackpad). Pan is not a separate toolbar mode.
- Zoom with trackpad or scroll wheel depending on your device.
Export
When the sketch is ready you can export to PNG or PDF. See Export.
