The right-click menu
Right-click is the fastest route to most things. What it offers depends on what is under the cursor.
Anywhere
Whenever you are in some other tool, the first row is ✏️ Edit mode — a one-click way back to Edit without going to the palette.
On empty space
With nothing selected the menu carries an Add block that starts any of the drawing tools: road, shared drive, path, aisle, house, parking space, annotation and tag (Tag this object when the cursor is on something taggable — see tags). It is the same as picking the tool from the left palette, without crossing the screen.
On something you have drawn
Right-clicking an object offers what makes sense for it — reshaping a site boundary, a car-park area, a landscaped area, an existing building or a water body, opening the fence designer on a run, and deleting.
Double-click
Double-clicking any object takes you straight into Edit with that object selected, whatever tool you were in. If the double-click did not land on anything, you are put back in the tool you were using, so it costs nothing to try.
Double-click any fence, wall, hedge or barrier to select it — even with another tool still active, such as the fence tool you have just drawn with. It does not start a new run or add a point to the one you clicked; on an iPad, double-tap it.
