Actions

The Action Panel includes features such as the ability to add a new page, define an area, flip the area vertically or horizontally, copy the perimeter of an area, and more. The Actions panel is essentially intended to replace the right‑click menus — anything that would normally require you to right‑click in order to modify has now been added to the Properties or Actions panel for convenience.

Page

When nothing is selected in your sketch, the Page Actions are displayed in the Actions panel. Page Actions include options for your sketch such as adding a new page or choosing a background image.

Flip Vertically
Flips the selected area vertically.
Flip Horizontally
Flips the selected area horizontally.
Copy Perimeter

Symbols

When a symbol is selected, the Actions panel presents the following options:
