Color Picker + cmd modifier
-
The cmd modifier to "Transform Tool" (temporary selection pointer to select/move an object) works with many tools. Unfortunately not with "Shape" related tools but that has come up as an issue/wish from my side before.
When "Style Picker" + cmd > gives "Transform Tool" and actually works as a selection/move tool.
But "Color Picker" does not do this. It certainly gives a symbol of Transform Tool but does not select nor move.Would be handy. For example, creating and organising multiple color swatches from a photo. Use Color Picker, Select (+cmd) (new) rectangle placeholder and pick color and next...

Which one of the tools? (some of course cannot have cmd+ alternates).

This might be a bug, I will try to fix it.

Drawing shapes and lines (but there lies the of course I'll think)

The drawing tools will use the None tool as cmd+ alternates.
The reason for this choice is that after we draw a shape we may want to adjust some of its parameters that is not possible to adjust while drawing.
The position and size are set while drawing.

For consistency and to please ex Illustrator customers it would be nicer in my opinion to use cmd+ for Drawing Tools for positioning and sizing. Use alt (which seems to be free) or something like that for the shape parameters.
But this is an old discussion posted here. Let's not do it again

I will try to change this after the next build
