Hey, it's Daniela, let me show you a few shortcuts to add elements to your murals. My all time favorite has to be adding a sticky note, you just double click anywhere on your canvas and you will get sticky notes. If after that you hit tab, you can create as many as you need in just one click. My second favorite would be to create connectors. 

If you hold down the letter C, your cursor will change into a connector. And so when you drag and release, you will get a whole menu of shapes to connect to So once again, hold down the letter C, drag and release. And that's how you create connectors. There are a lot more shortcuts that we have for adding content so your mural for example, control option will let you upload images.

Just very easily Ctrl option m will create a larger sticky and then again you can use the tap. Control option x will create circles stickies and then again tap tap tap. Do you need to remember all of these? No you don't we have you covered. If you go to the top right corner under the question mark, you will find an entire list of shortcuts so no need to use your brainpower for this.
