While you can't create a new shortcut specifically to create an artboard, you can use the existing shortcut to quickly access the Artboard Tool, which allows you to create, edit, and manage artboards.
Here's how:
- Press Shift + O This shortcut activates the Artboard Tool.
Once the Artboard Tool is active, you have several options:
- Click and Drag: Click and drag on the canvas to create a new artboard of the desired size.
- Preset Sizes: Look in the Control panel (usually at the top of your screen) for preset artboard sizes or to enter specific dimensions.
- Duplicate Existing Artboards: You can duplicate an existing artboard by holding Alt (Option on Mac) while dragging the artboard with the Artboard Tool selected.
Key Takeaway: The primary shortcut related to artboards is Shift + O, which directly selects the Artboard Tool. This provides access to all artboard creation and modification functionalities. You cannot define a custom shortcut to directly create a new artboard with specific dimensions.
