Canvas

The canvas shows your sign at its real pixel size, scaled to fit the window.

Moving elements

Drag an element to move it. While dragging:

• Hold Shift to lock movement to one axis.
• Elements snap to the sign’s edges and to its centre lines when they come within a few pixels.

For precise work, select an element and use the arrow keys 1 px per press, or 10 px with Ctrl held.

Overhang

Anything that reaches past the sign’s edge is drawn faded rather than simply disappearing, so you can see how far out it goes and pull it back. The mod crops at the edge, so whatever is faded will not appear in game.

Zoom and pan

Action	How
Zoom	Ctrl + scroll, or the − / + buttons below the canvas.
Fit to window	The percentage button between them.
Pan	Drag any empty space, or drag with the middle mouse button.

Panning only does anything once you are zoomed in past the fit level the grab cursor appears when there is somewhere to pan to.

Tip

A short click on empty canvas (without dragging) clears the selection, so panning never costs you a deselect.

Right-click menu

Right-click an element for copy, cut, duplicate, delete and the layer-order actions. Right-click empty canvas for paste, deselect, and quick “add text” / “add effect” entries.

Layers

The Layers list in the left panel holds every element on the sign.

• Click a row to select it.
• Drag the handle to reorder the bottom of the list draws on top.
• The × removes it.
• With a row focused: arrow keys move the selection, Ctrl/Alt + arrows reorder, Delete removes.
