- As GM: shows the selected token's "line of sight" it would have when Dynamic Lighting is enabled on the current page. Doesn't display player's view exactly! Use either a Dummy Account, or re-join the game as player, to make sure how it looks on the player's side.
Pressing Z with an object selected shows a larger version of that object in a model popup
Holding Shift and Double Clicking a token will open the Character Sheet (if there is one) that the token represents.
Holding Shift and click on a macro button (macro bar or l Collections-tab) or a Token Action, you open up the editor for the macro or ability macro/token action
Holding down Alt while performing a multi-select (dragging a box around objects) will select ONLY objects classified as drawings.

Pressing Shift+Z shows all players the larger version of that object. Note that only players and GMs that are on the same page as the selected token will see the model pop-up.
While holding down Shift, hold down your Left Mouse Button upon a point on the tabletop. This will center everyone's field of vision about that point. This is known as "shift-pinging". This cannot be done Dynamic Lighting or GM layers, only in Map and Object layers.
Pressing Ctrl+T makes you "Rejoin as Player"
If you then drag a handout from the N Journal to the players name at the bottom of the screen, it will pop up that handout for just that player (and also give them view permissions on it).
If you drag a player to a map, the player will move to that map (this is the way to Split the Party)
