Mulitplying and coloring lines

[Krystof]

Hi, I am using this app first time (I use Sketchup) and can't do most basic things with it or find an info how to do it.
I draw an arch line with pen tool, wanted to multiply it and color each one in the hue system, but:
- duplicate, copy and paste do not work;
- can't find a way or info how to color it.

Draw Line, "duplicate" it; you now have two lines directly on top of each other, both the same color.

Hit key "v" to go to move and "arrange" the top copy with the ⇧ (shift) and arrow keys ( or just one pixel at a time with just the arrow keys. )Go to the style menu and adjust the stroke color.



Rinse, repeat - too easy. You have a lot to learn about Pixelmator Pro.

Draw shape - hold "alt"-key and move (click+drag+release) with the Arrange tool to duplicate.

I still have a lot to learn about all the ⌥ (etc) kbd shortcuts too, it seems. Thanks EllenM!

Modifiers like "alt" resp. ⌥ for duplicating elements have been there for ever since in most macOS app I know off e.g. iWork and its successors, Finder in macOS etc pp.
