META-f : apply a fresh tag to the current objects
META-l : apply the last (highest) tag to the current objects
Things Mode¶
SPACE : add a new thing
w : rotate things 45 degrees anti-clockwise
x : rotate things 45 degrees clockwise
d : disconnect things at the same location
m : move selected things to occupy the same location
Vertex Mode¶
SPACE
begin/continue line drawing
with SHIFT pressed: continue in drawing mode
with CTRL pressed: inhibit creation of sectors
d : disconnect all linedefs at the selected vertices
m : merge selected vertices into a single one
I : reshape selected vertices into a line

Q : reshape selected vertices into a 240-degree arc
Linedef Mode¶
e : select a chain of linedefs
E : select a chain of linedefs with same textures
w : flip linedefs
k : split linedefs in two
A : auto-align offsets on all selected linedefs
d : disconnect selected linedefs from the rest
m : merge two one-sided linedefs into a two-sided linedef
Sector Mode¶
SPACE
add a new sector to area around the mouse pointer
if a sector is selected, copy that sector instead of using defaults
d : disconnect sector(s) from their neighbors
m : merge all selected sectors into a single one
e : select sectors with same floor height
E : select sectors with same floor texture
D : select sectors with same ceiling texture
w : swap floor and ceiling textures
, and < : lower floor heights
. and > : raise floor heights
[ and { : lower ceiling heights
] and } : raise ceiling heights
3D Preview¶
Cursor keys : move forward and back, turn left and right (the WASD keys can also be used for moving around the map)
MOUSE1 (LMB) : select walls, floors or ceilings
MOUSE2 (MMB) : turn or move the camera (by dragging the mouse)
