Unifying Shortcuts for Akira

[iclonethefirst]

New users expect certain behavior and functionalities when they switch to an similar app. In order to keep track of the established conventions, I started this table to get a better overview of the current conventions and features.

I will add new items over time. If a function is missing, please write them down as markdown.

Legend:

Description	Symbol	Code
Implemented	✅	:white_check_mark:
Implemented, but different from the conventions	🆚	:vs:
In progress	⏳	:hourglass_flowing_sand:
Missing	❌	:x:

Shortcut status and comparison:

Status	Issue	Akira	Functions	Figma	Adobe XD	Affinity Suite	Sketch
🆚		shift	resize from middle (mouse drag)	alt	alt	ctrl	option ( alt )
⏳		shift	select multiple items (click)				( )

Use shift to resize with item's ratio

I would use Sketch Shortcuts as inspiration due to them being straightforward and easy to remember.

At some point probably configurable shortcuts can be addressed. But probably an akira shorcuts will be always there as we want to suggest our own vision of "speed up and ease design"
