Etoys mouse shortcuts
Shift-click multi-select to manipulate multiple objects at once - also look in the selection's halo menu
Etoys keyboard shortcuts
Ctrl-enter Toggle Toolbar useful for older projects that extend to screen top
Ctrl-c Copy e.g. objects (if halo is active) or text (if text is selected)
Ctrl-v Paste e.g. images (if nothing is selected) or text (if text field has focus)

This list is not exhaustive but I'd rather have a compact cheat sheet than an overly long list. Everything else can be accessed via the World Menu. --Bert
