Conventions used in this manual

Four things come up on almost every page. They are covered here once.

Keys

Raily accepts either key of a pair on every system. The manual names the first:

In this manual	Windows and Linux	Mac
`Ctrl`	`Ctrl`	`Cmd` ⌘
`Alt`	`Alt`	`Option` ⌥
`Shift`	`Shift`	`Shift` ⇧

Mouse and finger

Right mouse button means: open the context menu. Without a right mouse button, long-press the object — with two fingers on a trackpad.

A single finger holds no key. If Optimize UI for touch is on in Settings, toggles for it appear in the upper toolbar: Multi-select, Snap off, Angle lock, No link. They latch on until you switch them off again; see Snapping.

The second click opens the editor

Many objects have their own editor. You reach it with a second click, not a double-click:

Click the object so that it alone is selected.
Click it again.

Below the track type buttons in the left toolbar are all the editors for the current selection; the second click opens the most common one. There are always two, even for multiple objects: Translate and Rotation.

Multi-tool buttons

A small triangle on a button means: there is a list behind it. A click on the triangle, or a long press on the button, opens it. The button shows the tool last used from that list, and a short click picks that one.

Icons

An icon like in the text is the button to look for in the program.
