Context Menus
Right-click around the editor to copy, paste, share, and get help. Right-clicking the canvas shows the full menu for the current mode.
- Copy Mode / Colorset / Pattern — copy to your clipboard
- Get Link — creates a shareable URL to send to anyone
- Share Mode — sends your mode to vortex.community
- Paste — pastes whatever’s on your clipboard
- Undo — reverses your last change
- Redo — re-applies the last undone change
- Help — opens the wiki without leaving the editor
Right-click any panel or color swatch and choose Help for that specific panel. On the Modes Panel you’ll also find copy, link, share, paste, and delete options.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Ctrl+C opens the copy menu at your cursor. Ctrl+V pastes right away — no prompts.
Undo & Redo
Every change you make in the editor can be undone. Right-click the canvas and choose Undo or Redo, or use the keyboard shortcuts below.
| Action | Shortcut |
|---|---|
| Undo | Ctrl+Z |
| Redo | Ctrl+Y or Ctrl+Shift+Z |
A small text log appears briefly at the bottom of the canvas showing what was undone or redone (e.g. “Pattern: Solid Red”, “Deleted Mode 2”). Undo works across pattern changes, color edits, mode add/delete, colorset generator, import, and more.
Help Popup
Help opens the wiki in a popup. Click the × or outside the popup to close it.
