Add shapes or text, then select an object here. Choose “Use canvas keyboard” to focus the canvas. Arrows move 1px (Shift: 10px). + or = grows and − shrinks by 1% (Shift: 10%), keeping proportions. [ and ] rotate 1° (Shift: 15°). Ctrl/Command+Z undoes; Ctrl/Command+Shift+Z redoes. Tab leaves the canvas. Freehand drawing remains visual.

“Use canvas keyboard” enters an application area for editing only the canvas. If your screen reader still reads instead of moving artwork, use its interaction mode or use the move, width, and rotation controls here. Tab leaves the canvas; Escape returns to “Use canvas keyboard” without deselecting. Instructions and object details remain readable outside the application area.
